SAINTS - MATHILDIS - MAUD Saint Mathildis - often called in English, Saint Maud - was a 10th century German Queen, who had been well educated in the monastery at Erford. Renowned during her married life for her piety, on the death of her husband, she renounced the world, and devoted herself to good works and spiritual contemplation. This print proclaims her royal status in the double-headed eagle device, and in her symbols of power - the triple staff and the crossed orb. Process print, from Alban Butler's The Lives of The Fathers, Martyrs and Other Principles Saints, edition of circa 1928.
