Madonna di Fatima - Miracolo del Sole – Dipinto di Dino Carbetta
"Our Lady of Fatima - Miracle of the Sun – Painting by Dino Carbetta” …
It encapsulates a profound moment that unfolded on October 13, 1917. In the vicinity of Fatima, a multitude had assembled, eagerly anticipating the foretold apparition of Our Lady, as heralded by three young shepherd visionaries: Lúcia, Francisco, and Jacinta Marto. What ensued, meticulously documented by journalists, legal professionals, and scientists, later earned the moniker "Miracle of the Sun." Eyewitness testimonies painted a vivid picture of extraordinary solar phenomena: the Sun seemingly pirouetting in the heavens, descending towards the earth, and casting a kaleidoscope of vibrant hues. This celestial spectacle, lasting a remarkable ten minutes, left an indelible impression on those present and reverberated the media environment of that period. Following the event, in November 1917, the local bishop launched a comprehensive investigation, meticulously scrutinizing witness statements and aligning purported messages from Mary with the tenets of Catholic theology. Notably, even skeptics among the gathering, including secular reporters and government officials, attested to the authenticity of the miraculous solar display. The formal endorsement by Bishop José da Silva on October 13, 1930, bestowed official recognition upon "Our Lady of Fatima" within the folds of Catholic tradition. This profound miracle, intertwined with its accompanying prophecies, continues to shape the devotional practices of countless Catholics, leaving an enduring legacy in the annals of Church history. Despite the passage of time, the composed testimony of witnesses such as Dr. Garrett serves as a poignant reminder of the event's solemnity. His steadfast recollection, amidst the surreal backdrop tinged with yellow hues, beckons subsequent generations to ponder the deeper significance of this extraordinary phenomenon.
