EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Saint Brendan of Clonfert, a revered figure in early Irish monastic history. Known by various titles such as the Navigator, the Voyager, the Anchorite, and the Bold, Saint Brendan was one of the Twelve Apostles of Ireland. The image depicts a significant moment from The Voyage of Saint Brendan the Abbot. Here we see Judas Iscariot sitting despondently on a cold and wet rock in the sea. It is revealed that this isolated spot serves as his respite from Hell on Sundays and feast days. In an act of compassion and protection, Saint Brendan shields Judas from the demons that haunt him for one night. Published in 1912 within The Book of Saints and Heroes, this historical illustration offers us a glimpse into ancient religious beliefs and practices. It showcases both the harsh realities faced by those condemned to Hell while also highlighting Saint Brendan's unwavering commitment to his faith. With its rich symbolism encompassing themes like religion, redemption, and mercy amidst treacherous waters, this archival photograph evokes contemplation about our own capacity for forgiveness. It stands as a testament to Saint Brendan's legacy as a courageous Catholic priest who fearlessly navigated through spiritual realms to bring solace even to those deemed lost souls like Judas Iscariot himself.
