Extravagance or Boldness

The Ancien Régime – as the political and social system in France during the period immediately preceding the Revolution of 1789 came to be known – was a complex era. In it, all the tradition forged over the centuries by Christian Civilization often coexisted with the worst foolishness stemming from …

Admiration, Service and Sacrifice Pervaded with Joy

The heroic demonstrations of faith that are given in Africa demand our respect and inspire our veneration. If naivety had led us to imagine that the age of martyrs was relegated to history books, and to forget that we will have tribulations in this world (cf. Jn 16:33), our African …

All… Except One!

By Jupiter, what a good idea Vipsanius Agrippa had when he built this temple! The Pantheon: what majesty, what conviction, what strength! And – between you and me – what a masterstroke… Agrippa well deserves to have his name engraved on its portico. “Dignus Roma locus, quo deus omnis eat …

Manipulated Morality?

In the days of yesteryear, we became accustomed to the fact that computers were gradually managing to imitate everything we possessed: they copied our logic, outdid us in memory, multiplied their processing capacity in place of our intelligence; they acquired cameras in place of eyes, microphones in place of ears, …

Two Ways of “being god”?

Here are two artistic representations, each portraying a different god, as conceived by their respective worshippers. The first depicts the god Moloch at the apex of the ritual proper to him. The second is an image of Our Lord Jesus Christ that presides over the entrance door of Amiens Cathedral …

The Mentality of Jesus, the Origin of Holy Tendencies

Our Lord Jesus Christ’s passage on this earth produced the greatest explosion in history – in the supernatural sphere of grace and salvation, no doubt, but not solely. The Redemption’s “force of impact” was felt far beyond, penetrating to the furthest reaches of human endeavour. In fact, it is difficult …

Two Ways of Rising

A Latin adage says that “mater artium necessitas”, necessity is the mother of the arts. This principle, applicable to practically every field of human endeavour, is perhaps nowhere more clearly expressed than in architecture. Buildings, which arose for the practical purpose of shelter and protection, have almost always also taken …

Adornment and Primordial Light

A wise teaching of Dr. Plinio Corrêa de Oliveira points out the dual purpose of clothing: to cover the body and reveal the soul. The craft of garment-making is so high that it was God Himself who made them for the first couple, affected by the consequences of sin (cf. …

What Does Art Announce to Us?

If the highest vocation of art is to unite the heavenly to the earthly, the famous altarpiece of the Annunciation by Blessed Fra Angelico, preserved in the Prado Museum in Madrid, is certainly one of the most successful endeavours to fulfil this calling. Usually seen in art history as a …

A Monastery or a Shopping Centre?

The building that illustrates these pages, built at the end of the Middle Ages in a polychrome flamboyant Gothic style, is a clear example of the spirit that permeated its time. The striking and truly artistic roof allows the viewer to estimate the height of the ceiling in the interior …
