Camiseta St Brigid The Patron Saint of Dairymaids

The image is a serene, art nouveau–inspired portrait of St Brigid rendered in soft, warm tones. She occupies a central, arch-shaped panel framed by intricate, flowing ornament, stylized vines, interlaced knotwork, and curling leaves that echo Celtic decorative motifs. In her cupped hands she holds a small bowl of milk. She is associated with wisdom, poetry, healing, protection, smithing, and domesticated animals. The whole scene is contained in an ornate Art Nouveau–inspired border: curling vines, stylized leaves, and knotwork In pre-Christian Ireland, 1 February, Brigid of Kildare's feast day, was the date of the Imbolc festival, a holiday associated with the beginning of spring. A traditional Gaelic festival halfway between the winter solstice and the spring equinox. © ‎‎Tuesday, ‎January ‎13, ‎2026, ‏‎1:35:19 PM Tracey Harrington Simpson
