EDITORS COMMENTS
The powerful print titled "In Livorno, during a barbaric raid, a nun from the Giosue Borsi kindergarten, after leading. . " captures a moment of immense bravery and devotion amidst chaos. In the midst of a brutal attack, this courageous nun takes charge and leads the children to safety in the shelter. However, her determination doesn't end there. Even as the building collapses around her, she refuses to let the sacrilegious enemy desecrate the consecrated hosts of the Chapel. With unwavering faith and amidst deafening explosions and crumbling walls, she rushes to save these sacred objects by raising the Ciborium from the altar and bringing it to safety. This image is a testament not only to religious devotion but also to human resilience in times of great danger. It showcases how individuals can rise above their own fears for something greater than themselves. The juxtaposition of conflict and religion serves as a reminder that even in times of war, faith can provide solace and strength. Through this photograph's vivid colors and intricate details created through lithography techniques by Achille Beltrame (1871-1945), we are transported back to that fateful day in Livorno during World War II. This remarkable nun's selfless act embodies courage, sacrifice, and an unwavering commitment to protecting what is sacred against all odds.
