EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment of profound faith and miraculous healing. The image depicts Marie Carteri, a blind woman, lying on the tomb of Deacon Francois de Paris at the parish cemetery Saint-Medard in Paris. Engraved by Pieter Yver in 1737, this artwork showcases the power of belief and its ability to transcend physical limitations. The scene is filled with emotion as Marie lies on a simple bed, her face turned towards the heavens. Surrounding her are humble peasants, farmers who have come to witness this extraordinary event. Their expressions reflect awe and hope as they bear witness to Marie's cure from blindness. This photograph provides insight into the Convulsionaries of St. Medard, followers of the Jansenist movement known for their intense religious fervor. They believed in divine intervention through convulsions and sought solace at holy sites such as this cemetery. The composition is rich with symbolism; an interior setting juxtaposed against haymaking tools like pitchforks represents both poverty and agricultural labor associated with these devout pilgrims. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded that miracles can happen even in our darkest moments. It serves as a testament to the enduring power of faith and how it can transform lives beyond measure.
