Saint Juan Diego
A Model of Humility
http://www.sancta.org/juandiego.html
"I give praise to you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, for although you have hidden these things from the wise and the learned you have revealed them to the childlike. Yes, Father, such has been your gracious will." (Mt 11, 25-26)
In April of 1990 Juan Diego was declared Blessed by Pope John Paul II at the Vatican. The following month, in the Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe in Mexico City, during his second visit to the shrine, John Paul II performed the beatification ceremony.
On July 2002 he was canonized by the Church, during a ceremony celebrated by John Paul II, again in the Basilica of Guadalupe.
In this picture Juan Diego is standing behind the Virgin Mary wearing a white robe. And there are Castilian roses on the ground surrounding the bottom of the Virgin Mary. There also seems to be rope tied in a bow on both of Juan Diego's feet, the paining is full of color.
The painting is interpreting the story of how Juan Diego had spoken with the Virgin Mary, and found Castilian roses growing in frozen soil. These roses don't grow in the area.
After reading the story I chose this painting because it puts together the key points of the story. Juan Diego, The Virgin Mary and the Castilian roses.
I would like to know if the painting has more meaning and why its called "A Model of Humility"
