1. Title: A Benedictine Monk from Lerins Monastery, Devotedly Crafting a Statuette of Saint Theresa, Acquired by the Queen of Italy This evocative black-and-white photograph captures a pious Benedictine monk from the renowned Lerins Monastery, engrossed in his artistic endeavor. The monk, with his tonsure and monastic attire, is meticulously working on a statuette of Saint Theresa, the celebrated 16th-century Spanish Carmelite nun. The serene ambiance of the monastery is palpable, with the monk's focused expression and the soft, natural light filtering through the window, casting an ethereal glow on the scene.
