EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the essence of tradition and faith during Sevilla's Corpus Christi procession in the early 1800s. The photograph, taken circa 1830, depicts the moment when the ornate monstrance, bearing the Eucharist, is carried across the Playa Real, a grand square in the heart of Seville, Spain. The Corpus Christi procession is a centuries-old tradition that celebrates the belief in the real presence of Christ in the Eucharist. The procession is a solemn and elaborate event, with participants dressed in traditional robes and bearing candles, crosses, and other religious symbols. The monstrance, adorned with gold and precious stones, is carried aloft on the shoulders of the costaleros, who are specially selected for their strength and devotion. The photograph offers a glimpse into the historical significance of this tradition in Seville, a city renowned for its rich cultural heritage and deep-rooted religious practices. The procession route winds through the city's narrow streets, passing by the magnificent Seville Cathedral and other landmarks, before returning to the cathedral for a Mass of Thanksgiving. The image also highlights the importance of the crosses in the Corpus Christi procession. Crosses are carried by penitents, who walk in penance and prayer, seeking forgiveness and redemption. The crosses are also used to clear the way for the procession, as the bearers touch them to the ground to ward off evil and ensure the safe passage of the monstrance. This photograph is a testament to the enduring power of tradition and faith, as well as the beauty and grandeur of Seville's Corpus Christi procession. It invites us to reflect on the deep spiritual significance of this historic event and the role it plays in the lives of the people of Seville and beyond.
