Madonna di Fatima - Miracolo del Sole – Dipinto di Dino Carbetta
"Our Lady of Fatima - Miracle of the Sun – Painting by Dino Carbetta” …
The painting entitled "Our Lady of Fatima - Miracle of the Sun" depicts an event that occurred on October 13, 1917. A large crowd had gathered near Fatima to witness the next apparition of Our Lady, as foretold by three shepherd children, Lúcia, Francisco, and Jacinta Marto. According to reports from journalists, lawyers, and scientists who were in attendance, the event that followed became known as the "Miracle of the Sun." Witnesses claimed to have seen extraordinary solar activity, such as the Sun appearing to "dance" or zig-zag in the sky, careen towards the Earth, or emitting multicolored light and radiant colors. The event lasted for ten minutes and was widely reported in newspapers. In November 1917, the local bishop conducted a canonical investigation of the event, reviewing witness accounts and assessing private revelations from Mary that were compatible with Catholic theology. The priests conducting the investigation were convinced by the concurring testimony of extraordinary solar phenomena from secular reporters, government officials, and other skeptics in attendance. Bishop José da Silva declared the miracle "worthy of belief" on October 13, 1930, permitting "Our Lady of Fatima" within the Catholic Church. Over the years, the miracle and related prophecies have impacted the devotional practices of many Catholics, and it continues to be a significant event in the history of the church. Despite the enduring interest in the miracle, Dr. Garrett, who was present at the event, affirmed that he was in his right mind and not suffering from a hallucination. He described everything as taking on the color of old yellow damask, with people looking unattractive and suffering from jaundice. He observed all the phenomena calmly and serenely, without any emotional disturbance, leaving it to others to interpret and explain them.
