EDITORS COMMENTS
The small village of Banneux, Belgium holds a special place in the hearts of pilgrims from around the world. In 1933, a young girl named Mariette Beco claimed to have seen visions of the Virgin Mary in this humble town. The sacred spring that she caused to flow has since become a site of pilgrimage and healing for those seeking solace and spiritual renewal.
In this print taken in 1990, we see pilgrims eagerly stocking up on water from the sacred spring. With containers in hand, they patiently wait their turn to fill up with the holy water believed to possess miraculous powers. The atmosphere is one of reverence and devotion as each person takes part in this ancient ritual.
The image captures a moment frozen in time - a timeless tradition passed down through generations. The faith and belief that draw people to Banneux are palpable in every detail of this photograph. It serves as a reminder of the enduring power of spirituality and the profound impact it can have on individuals seeking connection with something greater than themselves.
As we gaze upon this scene, we are reminded that sometimes it is not just about what we see with our eyes, but what we feel deep within our souls. At Banneux, believers find comfort and hope amidst the tranquil beauty of nature and the divine presence said to reside there.
