With the Lourdes Pilgrims
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating engraving that takes us back to the 19th century, capturing a momentous pilgrimage to the sacred site of Lourdes in France. The image showcases a diverse group of pilgrims gathered outside a picturesque stone church and cottage, eagerly awaiting their turn to approach the revered grotto. The scene is filled with anticipation as men, women, and children carry provisions baskets while beggars line the roadside seeking alms. In the foreground stands an imposing statue representing Virgin Mary, symbolizing hope and faith for those who have arrived at this holy spot. As we delve deeper into this intricate artwork, our attention is drawn towards a Capuchin friar addressing a procession of pilgrims. His words guide them towards experiencing the miraculous waters believed to possess healing properties. This print not only depicts religious devotion but also offers glimpses into everyday life during that era. The architectural details of both the church and monument showcase skilled craftsmanship prevalent in European art at that time. Through this engraving, we are transported back in time to witness an important chapter in history - where Bernadette Soubirous first encountered visions of Virgin Mary on June 7th, 1844. It serves as a reminder of how faith can bring people together from all walks of life and unite them under one common purpose – seeking solace and spiritual enlightenment.
