EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a historic artifact that holds great significance in the religious realm - a Bottle of Lourdes water. Created by an anonymous French School artist during the 19th century, this artwork is now part of a private collection. The bottle itself represents more than just its physical form; it symbolizes the profound spiritual connection between humanity and divinity. The location depicted above is none other than the Massabielle grotto, where St Bernadette Soubirons experienced extraordinary visions of the Virgin Mary. This sacred site became synonymous with the cult of Our Lady of Lourdes, attracting countless pilgrims seeking solace and healing. The basilica built in 1876 stands tall in southwestern France, serving as a testament to faith and devotion. Its spire pierces through the heavens, reminding visitors of their connection to something greater than themselves. Contained within this humble vessel is holy water from Lourdes - believed by many to possess miraculous properties. The strap attached to it suggests that it was once carried as a cherished souvenir or perhaps used for personal rituals. As we gaze upon this image captured by Bridgeman Images, we are transported to Provence Alpes Cotes d'Azur region, where spirituality intertwines with breathtaking landscapes. It serves as a reminder that even amidst our daily lives, moments of divine inspiration can occur if we open ourselves up to them.
