Advocate Catholicism Jeanne Opposes Verde Canonisation Monsignor
EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing print captures a pivotal moment in history as Monsignor Verde, also known as the Avocatus Diaboli or Devil's Advocate, opposes the canonization of Jeanne d'Arc. In this image from 1909, we see the clash between faith and skepticism within Christianity as Monsignor Verde challenges the sanctity of one of France's most revered figures.
The intense expression on Monsignor Verde's face conveys his unwavering determination to question and scrutinize every aspect of Jeanne d'Arc's life and deeds. As the Promotor Fidei or Promoter of Faith, it is his duty to ensure that only those truly deserving are granted sainthood.
Jeanne d'Arc, also known as Joan of Arc, was a young French peasant girl who claimed to have divine visions and led her country to victory during the Hundred Years War. Her bravery and piety made her a symbol of hope for many Catholics, but Monsignor Verde remains unconvinced.
This image serves as a reminder that even within religious institutions, there exists debate and dissent. The struggle between belief and doubt is an integral part of human nature, reflected here in this historical moment captured by Mary Evans Picture Library.
