"Bernardine: A Journey through History and Faith" Step into the world of Bernardine, a name that carries with it centuries of significance. From the majestic St Bernard Abbey to the renowned Trappist Beer, this name holds a rich tapestry of stories waiting to be discovered. In the 15th century, Spanish Jews by Jaume Huguet captured Bernardine's essence in their art. One such masterpiece is "Madonna and Child with Saint Jerome and Saint Bernardino of Siena, " painted between 1480-1485. This painting transports us back in time, showcasing the devotion surrounding Bernardine during that era. Episode 25 and Episode 26 depict remarkable tales from Rome where Saint Bernardino cured a diseased young man, showcasing his miraculous powers. These episodes remind us of his unwavering faith and ability to heal those in need. The Processional Cross from 1479 takes us on a visual journey through Italian craftsmanship. Created by an unknown artist, its intricate details pay homage to Bernardine's legacy as it was carried during religious processions. Within the walls of Santa Maria delle Carceri Convent in Assisi lies another testament to Bernardine's influence - a nun named after him who dedicated her life to serving others selflessly. Her commitment echoes his teachings and serves as an inspiration for all who visit this sacred place. Sano di Pietro's workshop brings forth another captivating image - "Saint Bernardino. " Painted around ca. 1460-70, this artwork captures not only his physical appearance but also reflects his inner strength and spiritual aura. Francesco di Giorgio Martini's masterpiece "Saint Bernardino Preaching from a Pulpit" showcases how he captivated audiences with his powerful sermons filled with love and compassion for humanity. His words resonated deeply within people's hearts even long after he had left them behind. Lastly, we encounter Doménikos Theotokópoulos, commonly known as El Greco.
