St.CARLO BORROMEO, Signed silkwork 1849 |
£SOLD |
A stunning and unusual mid 19th century silk needlework, probably coping a contempory print. The back of the frame is just as interesting.
Known as the loving reformer, Charles Borromeo cared about people and wanted them to know that the Church of God cared about them, too. His changes and reforms in the way the Church was organized, changed the way that the Church listened to the people—all of them, not just the rich and powerful.
