Canticle of the Sun: Saint Francis of Assisi
Category: Religion
Author: Fiona French, Illustrator
Copyright/published Year: 2006 by Ignatius Press
ISBN: 158617164X
Binding: hardcover
The beloved hymn of Saint Francis of Assisi, The Canticle of
the Sun, is one of the greatest songs of Christendom. In it he
praises the Creator for all the glories of creation, especially
"Brother Sun" and "Sister Moon". Inspired by Byzantine art,
acclaimed artist Fiona French presents twelve mosaic tableaux
that light up a sparkling translation of the canticle. The hymn
is a beautiful poem, and a profound prayer, touching on the
incredible beauty of God's creation, but also the profound
meaning and importance of how we give praise to God when we
forgive each other, and when we endure sickness and tribulation
in peace.
These original mosaic illustrations by French are a dazzling
celebration of God's gift of life and all creation. Her splendid
art combined with the beauty of the the hymn of St. Francis
present a book that will be deeply inspiring for all ages.
