Augustin - 1862 Hand-Colored Lithograph of an Augustinian Monk
This beautiful 1862 hand-colored lithograph portrays an Augustinian monk, showcasing the characteristic simplicity and solemnity of the Order of Saint Augustine. The figure is dressed in a flowing black robe, a broad-brimmed hat, and holds a book, symbolizing the monastic tradition of study and prayer. His contemplative pose captures the spiritual dedication and intellectual pursuits of the order.
The Augustinians, established in the 13th century, follow the Rule of Saint Augustine, focusing on community life, the search for truth, and service to others. Known for their significant contributions to theology, education, and pastoral care, the order remains active today, with members serving in parishes, schools, and missions worldwide.
This lithograph, part of the Album ou Collection Complète et Historique des Costumes de la Cour de Rome, was designed by the skilled artist G. Perugini and accompanied by explanatory texts from Père Hélyot. It offers an engaging glimpse into the rich heritage and tradition of the Catholic Church, appealing to collectors of antique prints, religious art, and ecclesiastical history.
Translation of Introduction Text
A powerful interest is attached to the name of Rome, an even more profound interest to the name of Christ. Rome, through its genius, the vast intelligence of its warriors, orators, and legislators, prepared the cradle where Catholicism would be born, grow, develop, and establish itself. The history of Catholicism is the history of this great and glorious city above all others.
Virgil, in a truly prophetic verse, said: "Tu regere imperio populos, Romane, memento." This prophecy has seen the most noble, illustrious, and glorious developments, all conspiring for the eternal city's glory: its history, arts, monuments, and the religion at its core. Yet no other city offers such a collection, from the monuments of Augustus to those of Sixtus V and Leo XII, from pagan temples to saints' tombs and martyrs' shrines. This union of grandeur is further illustrated daily by the magnificence of Catholic rites.
With this album, we present the splendid costumes of the Papal dignitaries and the humble attire of religious orders. These costumes were inspired by the traditions handed down through centuries and were designed with unique precision by the talented artist G. Perugini.
