EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a poignant moment in history as Saint Francis Borgia, the Spanish noble and prelate, stands before the coffin of Queen Isabella of Portugal. The image is a line engraving from 1876, showcasing the intricate details and emotions of this scene. Saint Francis Borgia's presence exudes reverence and solemnity as he pays his respects to the deceased queen. Dressed in an elegant Italian robe from the 16th century, he embodies aristocratic grace while maintaining his humble demeanor. His position as General of the Society of Jesus adds weight to his role in this somber occasion. The atmosphere within the church is filled with mourning and prayer. Incense wafts through the air, creating a sense of sacredness around Queen Isabella's casket. A candlestick illuminates Saint Francis Borgia's face, highlighting his deep contemplation and devotion. Surrounded by other men wearing hats denoting their status within society or clergy, Saint Francis Borgia stands out as a figure of authority and spirituality. His vestment further emphasizes his role as a prelate within the Church.
