St. Juan Diego – by Miguel Cabrera

Description: St. Juan Diego – by Miguel Cabrera – Catholic Art Print "St. Juan Diego"Miguel CabreraJuan Diego (1474-1548) brought the world the picture of Our Lady of Guadalupe. He was an indigenous peasant of New Spain, what we call Mexico today. He had four visions of the Blessed Mother in December, 1531. He told the bishop about them, and when asked for proof, Mary provided Juan Diego with roses in winter. He carried them in his tilma, a native garment similar to a cape, which he opened before the bishop. It is said the bishop sunk to his knees, because on the tilma was a beautiful paining of the Virgin Mary as an indigenous American. The tilma was then displayed in a chapel near its current site, the Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe in Mexico City. Devotion to Our Lady rapidly spread in the 1500s with the reporting of miracles, and the Church gained tens of millions of converts in the New World. Our Lady of Guadalupe now has a world-wide devotion, and each year the Basilica receives tens of millions of faithful visitors. Juan Diego was canonized in 2002 by Pope John Paul II. "The True Portrait of the Servant of God, Juan Diego" are the words across the top of this painting. Miguel Mateo Maldonado y Cabrera (1695-1768) about two hundred years after Juan Diegos visions. Cabrera was considered the greatest artist of New Spain.
