EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a holy card dedicated to the Sacred Heart, dating back to 1906. Created by an anonymous French School artist from the 19th century, this small but powerful piece measures at just 5x10 cm and is now part of a private collection. The image captures the essence of religious devotion with its striking symbolism. The focal point of the holy card is undoubtedly the Sacred Heart itself, depicted as a burning flame surrounded by a crown of thorns. This representation signifies both suffering and divine love in Catholic tradition. Drops of blood can be seen trickling down from the heart, symbolizing Christ's sacrifice for humanity. The composition exudes ephemeral beauty as flames dance around the heart, creating an ethereal glow. The inclusion of fleur de lys motifs adds a touch of regality and emphasizes France's historical connection to Catholicism. With its intricate details and profound meaning, this holy card serves as a reminder of faith and spirituality. It invites contemplation on Christ's enduring love for mankind despite his own suffering. As an artifact steeped in religious significance, it holds immense value not only for collectors but also for those seeking solace or inspiration through their spiritual journey. Bridgeman Images has masterfully captured this timeless piece through their expert photography skills, allowing viewers to appreciate every delicate detail up close while preserving its historical context for generations to come.
