St Margaret holding a palm in her raised left hand, a dragon at her right. Engraving. 4 1\/4 x 4 5\/8 in. (10.8 x 11.8 cm). The Elisha Whittelsey Collection, The Elisha Whittelsey Fund, 1948. New York City, New York. The Metropolitan Museum of Art.<\/p><p>This engraving depicts St. Margaret standing with her body in three-quarter view and her head turned slightly to the left, gazing down at the dragon at her feet. In her left hand, she holds a palm branch, which symbolizes her victory over death and her martyrdom.\u00a0The dragon at her feet is depicted as a large, serpent-like creature with wings and a long, pointed tail. The dragon is a common symbol in Christian art, and in this case, it represents the devil or evil, which St. Margaret is said to have defeated through her faith and martyrdom.<\/p><p>The engraving itself is rendered in a highly detailed and intricate style, with fine lines and cross-hatching used to create texture and depth. St. Margaret&#8217;s flowing robes and hair are particularly well-detailed, as are the folds and curves of the dragon&#8217;s body. The overall effect is one of dynamic movement and intense emotion, as St. Margaret is shown triumphing over her foe and celebrating her victory.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-44827f1a\" data-id=\"44827f1a\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-52721a1 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"52721a1\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"color: #4999d4;\"><strong>St. Margaret of Scotland <\/strong>&#8211; November 16th<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-471fbd77 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"471fbd77\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Margaret is the epitome of a Christian leader and the patron saint of Scotland. Despite her royal lineage, she had a difficult upbringing, with her family often in exile or starving for the English throne. While escaping from England, her family became shipwrecked in Scotland, where King Malcolm offered them protection and Margaret a hand in marriage.<\/p><p>As a pious Christian woman, who had seen how the church was operating all over the continent, she initiated reforms. She was a good influence on her husband and, in many ways, ruled with him. She became an example of what a &#8220;just ruler&#8221; should be. She helped establish many monasteries, including Dunfermline, where she was buried, and restored the famous Abbey at Iona. She also believed that it was the ruler&#8217;s vocation to assist the poor and needy with the giving of alms.<\/p><p>To honor this saint, we are having warm and buttery Scottish shortbread biscuits. They are simple, yet a perfect winter treat, often associated with Christmastide. Legend has it that it was St. Margaret&#8217;s descendant and future Scottish ruler, Mary Queen of Scots, who had the Scottish shortbread invented. Mary was highly devoted to St. Margaret, so much so that when she was in difficult labor with the future King of England James, she had Margaret&#8217;s head exhumed and brought to her. Margaret is still an inspiration to all leaders, especially women, who follow in her footsteps.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-2264c8e elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"2264c8e\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-85c74fe\" data-id=\"85c74fe\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a8e9900 elementor-widget elementor-widget-wpzoom-elementor-recipe-card-widget-cpt\" data-id=\"a8e9900\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"wpzoom-elementor-recipe-card-widget-cpt.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wpzoom-custom-recipe-card-post wpzoom-rcb-post-shortcode\" data-parent-id=\"7066\" data-recipe-post=\"7066\"><div id=\"wpzoom-premium-recipe-card\" class=\"wp-block-wpzoom-recipe-card-block-recipe-card header-content-align-center block-alignment-center is-style-newdesign\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"recipe-card-image\">\n\t\t\t<figure>\n\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"750\" height=\"464\" src=\"https:\/\/cookingthechristianyear.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Shortbread-1.jpg\" class=\"wpzoom-recipe-card-image\" alt=\"Shortbread Cookies\" id=\"7070\" data-pin-media=\"http:\/\/cookingthechristianyear.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Shortbread-1.jpg\" data-pin-description=\"Shortbread Cookies\" \/>\t\t\t\t<figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div><!-- \/.recipe-card-image -->\n\t\t<div class=\"recipe-card-heading\">\n\t\t<h2 class=\"recipe-card-title\">Shortbread Cookies<\/h2>\n\t\t<div class=\"wpzoom-rating-stars-container\" data-rating=\"0.0\" data-rating-total=\"0\" data-recipe-id=\"7066\" data-user-can-rate=\"1\">\n\t\t\t\t<ul class=\"wpzoom-rating-stars\"><li class=\"wpz-empty-star wpz-star-icon\"><\/li><li class=\"wpz-empty-star wpz-star-icon\"><\/li><li class=\"wpz-empty-star wpz-star-icon\"><\/li><li class=\"wpz-empty-star wpz-star-icon\"><\/li><li class=\"wpz-empty-star wpz-star-icon\"><\/li><\/ul><span class=\"wpzoom-rating-stars-average\"><small class=\"wpzoom-rating-average\">0<\/small> <small>from<\/small> <small class=\"wpzoom-rating-total-votes\">0<\/small> <small>votes<\/small><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<em class=\"wpzoom-rating-stars-tooltip\"><\/em>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\t\t\t\t<span class=\"recipe-card-difficulty\">Difficulty: <mark>Easy<\/mark><\/span>\t<\/div><!-- \/.recipe-card-heading -->\n\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\t\t<p class=\"recipe-card-summary\">Shortbread cookies are a type of cookie that originated in Scotland.
