EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of a Roman Catholic mass during the Espiritu Santo Festival in Vila Novo, Terceira, Portugal. The image showcases the deep-rooted spirituality and unwavering faith that permeates through this religious ceremony. In the foreground, a priest stands at the altar, adorned in his sacred vestments. His solemn expression reflects his devotion as he prepares to administer communion to the faithful gathered before him. A monk stands beside him, offering support and guidance throughout this significant ritual. The diverse congregation is represented by men and women of all ages who have come together to partake in this spiritual experience. Their faces reflect a sense of reverence and awe as they engage with their beliefs. The flickering church candles cast an ethereal glow upon the scene, creating an atmosphere of tranquility and introspection. In their warm light, one can almost feel a connection to something greater than themselves. This photograph encapsulates not only the rich traditions of Roman Catholicism but also highlights how religion serves as a unifying force within communities across Europe. It reminds us that amidst our differences, we are bound by shared values and beliefs. Philippe Lissac's masterful composition invites viewers to contemplate their own spiritual journey while appreciating the beauty found within religious rituals like these.
