About this artwork

As per the tale of the Irish Saint Bride, it's said that she was magically whisked away to Bethlehem to be present for Christ's birth. In this scene, two angels are shown carrying the saint, clad in white, across the ocean. The depiction of the sea mirrors Duncan's fascination with the Outer Hebrides and the Isle of Iona. The inclusion of birds and a seal serves as a realistic contrast to the supernatural presence of the angels, who seem to be emerging from the patterned border. The angels' robes are adorned with scenes from Christ's life, and may also feature an amusing self-portrait of the artist as a tiny clown (symbolising a holy fool) joining the procession of the magi on the robe of the foremost angel.

About the artist

John Duncan (1866-1945) was a significant player in the Celtic Revival within Scottish art. Originally from Dundee, he refined his illustrating skills there before furthering his studies and work in Antwerp and London. In 1892, Duncan made Edinburgh his home. He played a significant part in the Symbolist movement across Europe. His sources of inspiration were diverse, including Celtic images and the early Italian Renaissance. Duncan was known for his versatility, producing everything from book illustrations and stained glass to tempera paintings and murals.
