1170 1221 Crucifix Dominic Edging Founder Guzman Halo Heresy Named Opponent Order Preacher Rosary Albigensians Relentless
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph print captures the intense and unwavering gaze of Saint Dominic de Guzman, founder of the Dominican Order, as he holds a crucifix in one hand and a rosary in the other. Born in Caleruega, Spain, in 1170, Dominic was a dedicated preacher and a relentless opponent of heresy, most notably the Albigensians in southern France. His commitment to combating heresy led him to establish the Order of Preachers, also known as the Dominicans, in 1216. Dominic's halo, edged in gold, shines brightly against the stark contrast of the image, emphasizing his saintly status. The intricate details of his habit, with its white tunic and black scapular, are clearly visible, adding to the authenticity of the portrait. The crucifix, with its intricately carved figure of Christ, rests comfortably in his hand, while the rosary, a symbol of his devotion, dangles from his fingers. Saint Dominic's legacy as a preacher and founder of the Dominican Order continues to be celebrated to this day. His unwavering commitment to spreading the word of God and combating heresy earned him the title of Doctor of the Church in 1520. This powerful and moving image serves as a reminder of his enduring influence and the importance of faith and devotion in the face of adversity. The photograph print, by Mary Evans Prints Online, is a timeless and inspiring representation of Saint Dominic de Guzman, a man whose legacy continues to shape the Catholic Church and the world.
