The Holy Guardian Angel Protecting a Child – Antique German Chromolithograph, 1900 This beautifully composed antique German chromolithograph depicts the Holy Guardian Angel gently guiding and protecting a small child as they cross a narrow wooden bridge above flowing water. The scene is rich in symbolic meaning, representing divine protection, childhood innocence, and spiritual guidance — themes deeply rooted in Catholic devotional tradition. The guardian angel is shown in flowing white robes with a pale blue sash, her wide luminous wings fully extended as she leads the child safely forward. A golden halo and radiant star above her head emphasize her divine nature, while her calm and protective posture reinforces the message of constant heavenly care. The child, dressed in soft rose-colored garments and holding a simple walking staff, steps forward with trust and quiet confidence. The surrounding landscape enhances the spiritual narrative: a peaceful waterfall below, a distant church on the cliffs above, and lush greenery framing the path. These details reflect the traditional Catholic interpretation of life’s journey guided by faith. The soft atmospheric lighting, subtle color transitions, and fine detail are characteristic of high-quality German chromolithography at the turn of the 20th century. This image was widely cherished in Catholic homes, schools, and religious institutions, where it served both as devotional inspiration and as a comforting symbol of protection for children. Today, original examples in strong condition are increasingly scarce and highly sought after by collectors of antique religious art. An ideal piece for Catholic art collectors, children’s rooms, chapels, prayer spaces, and anyone seeking a meaningful symbol of spiritual guardianship. CONDITION REPORT Good antique condition. Light, even age toning throughout. Minor edge wear and gentle softening at the corners. No tears, no significant losses, and no restoration. Colors remain vibrant, with excellent preservation of gold tones and soft pastel shading. FRAMING TIPS This print will be beautifully enhanced by a softly antiqued gilt or champagne-gold frame to echo the angelic glow. A deep ivory or pale linen mat with museum glass will elevate the devotional and collector-quality presentation.

St. Aloysius Gonzaga, c.1900 German Devotional Chromolithograph (Printed in Germany) This early 20th-century German chromolithograph presents a serene and contemplative portrait of St. Aloysius Gonzaga, one of the most revered saints of the Catholic Church and patron saint of youth and purity. Produced around 1900 by a major German devotional press, the print displays the refined craftsmanship and rich colouring typical of the period’s finest chromolithographic work. The composition shows the young saint in quiet adoration of the crucifix, his head tilted in prayerful devotion, surrounded by classic symbols of sanctity and purity: lilies, rosary beads, devotional books, and the deep red cloth of an altar. Unlike the more dramatic depictions from the same era, this version places Aloysius within a softly rendered church interior, with a framed image of the Virgin and Child visible behind him. His vestments are delicately modelled, with lace edging and soft shading achieved through multiple lithographic stones, each layer adding depth and texture to the fabric. The gentle gradation of colour in the background and the luminous golden halo around the saint reveal the technical mastery of German chromolithographers working circa 1900–1915. The lower margin includes multilingual captions—“Hl. Aloysius von Gonzaga. St. Luigi di Gonzaga. St. Louis de Gonzague. St. Luis Gonzaga. St. Aloysius of Gonzaga.”—reflecting the widespread international distribution of German devotional prints. The imprimatur line, “Imprimi permittitur. Ordinariatus episcopalis Limburgensis,” confirms official Church approval for its publication. The imprint “Printed in Germany” situates the work in one of the major German centres of religious chromolithography, likely Munich or Cologne, where high-quality devotional images were produced for Catholic communities across Europe and the Americas. This print is unquestionably an original chromolithograph. The velvety colour fields, stippled pigment textures, soft transitions, crisp typesetting, and characteristic matte paper all confirm authentic stone-based printing rather than modern offset or digital reproduction. Prints of St. Aloysius from this period were commonly displayed in Catholic schools, parishes, and youth chapels, making high-quality surviving examples increasingly desirable for both devotional use and collectors of sacred art. Conditon Report: Very good condition. The colours remain bright and true, with light and even toning at the outer margins and minor handling marks typical of age. No tears, losses, creases, or repairs. The plate text and imprimatur remain sharp and fully legible. Tips for Framing: Ideal for framing in a dark walnut or gilded frame to complement the warm reds and golds of the composition. A cream or ivory mat helps emphasize the saint’s pale vestments and the purity symbolized by the lilies. For a more modern presentation, a slim black frame with a wide mat creates elegant contrast while preserving the devotional atmosphere.
