Il Paradiso Regna del Neve Gloriosa sulla Chiesa di San Sebastiano nelle Alpi Bavaresi – Dipinto di Dino Carbetta
“Heaven Reigns of Glorious Snow on the Church of San Sebastiano in the Bavarian Alps - Painting by Dino Carbetta "...
Psalms 42:2-6 – “As the deer longs for streams of water, so my soul longs for you, O God. My soul thirsts for God, the living God. When can I enter and see the face of God? My tears have been my bread day and night, as they ask me every day, “Where is your God?” Those times I recall as I pour out my soul, When I would cross over to the shrine of the Mighty One, to the house of God, Amid loud cries of thanksgiving, with the multitude keeping festival. Why are you downcast, my soul; why do you groan within me? Wait for God, for I shall again praise him, my savior and my God.” The beautiful Bavarian church was built in 1512 under Prince Provost Gregor Rainer is consecrated to Saints Sebastian and Fabian and lies only 161 miles from Bolzano, Italy. In the late gothic built style, the 16th-century church has been extended several times and provided with a stone tower in 1611. It was finally redesigned in baroque style together with the tower built in 1700 and covered with an onion dome and wooden shingles. To the east of the church is the historic cemetery, which is adjacent to the war memorial in memory of the Ramsau people who died in World War II. In 1960 US President Eisenhower painted the church by hand based on a color photo. His work was reproduced as a Christmas present for the White House staff and published in the European edition of Stars and Stripes, the daily newspaper of the US armed forces. I found the beautiful snowy church and mountains to be a perfect backdrop in a faithful description of this Psalms bible passage.
