EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a poignant moment during a pilgrimage to Lourdes in 1899. In the image, we see a disabled child being carefully placed onto a stretcher, surrounded by concerned onlookers. The atmosphere is filled with anticipation and hope as they wait for what could be described as a miraculous war. The scene depicted here is based on an original watercolour by Caplain, skillfully transformed into an engraving for publication in "Le sun-du-dimanche" on September 24th of that year. This artwork beautifully conveys the essence of this religious journey and its significance within the Catholic faith. Lourdes, located in the high Pyrenees region of France, has long been regarded as a place of healing and spiritual solace. Pilgrims from all over the world flock to this holy site seeking divine intervention for their ailments and disabilities. The presence of the disabled child symbolizes both vulnerability and resilience, highlighting their unwavering faith amidst physical challenges. Through this powerful image, we are reminded of the enduring power of religion and its ability to provide comfort even in times of great hardship. Stefano Bianchetti's expert reproduction ensures that this historical moment remains preserved for generations to come. It serves as a testament to the enduring impact that religious devotion can have on individuals' lives while offering us insight into past practices surrounding faith-based healing rituals.
