Ursuline - 1862 Hand-Colored Lithograph of an Ursuline Nun
This 1862 hand-colored lithograph features an Ursuline nun, a serene representation of devotion and education. She is dressed in a modest black habit with a white wimple and veil, emphasizing the order's values of simplicity and service. Her hands are clasped in front of her, reflecting a calm, prayerful stance.
The Ursuline Order, founded by Saint Angela Merici in 1535, is one of the oldest female Catholic teaching orders. Dedicated to the education of girls and the care of the sick and poor, Ursuline nuns played a crucial role in promoting education and community service across Europe and the Americas. The order remains active today, continuing its mission of spiritual and intellectual development.
This lithograph, part of the *Album ou Collection Complète et Historique des Costumes de la Cour de Rome*, was created by G. Perugini. It provides an elegant portrayal of the traditional Ursuline attire, making it a meaningful addition to collections of religious art, Catholic history, or antique prints.
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.
