EDITORS COMMENTS
This beautiful Chromolithograph Devotional Card features an image of the Virgin Mary holding a communion cup, or Grail, with one hand while the other hand is clasped in prayer. The intricately detailed and vibrant colors of this chromolithograph showcase Mary's serene and holy demeanor, making it a fitting devotional piece for the first communion of Eva Gilbert on May 2, 1907, at The Church of Saint Eloi (Eligius, also known as Eloy or Loye) in Dunkirk, France. The Church of Saint Eloi, located in the northern French city of Dunkirk, has a rich history and holds significant cultural and religious importance for the local community. The use of the Chromolithograph process, a popular printing technique during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, adds to the card's historical significance and visual appeal. The communion cup, or Grail, held by Mary symbolizes the Eucharist, which is a central element of Christian faith. The image of Mary with the communion cup serves as a reminder of her role as the Mother of God and her unwavering faith and devotion to her son, Jesus Christ. This souvenir card, which commemorates Eva Gilbert's first communion, is a precious keepsake that reflects the deep spiritual connection between the individual and their faith. The intricate details and vibrant colors of this Chromolithograph Devotional Card make it a beautiful and meaningful addition to any collection of religious art or personal devotional items.
