Madonna della Vittoria e del Rosario - Dipinto di Dino Carbetta
Madonna of Victory and the Rosary - Painting by Dino Carbetta
Honors the Feast of Our Lady of the Rosary celebrated on October 7. Originally designated as "Our Lady of Victory" by Pope Pius V, this feast commemorates the decisive Battle of Lepanto in 1571 amidst the looming specter of the imminent danger posed by the formidable Ottoman fleet, Pope Pius V implored Europe to unite in prayer, leading a solemn rosary procession in Rome. The painting captures this pivotal moment, depicting the devout supplication of the faithful and the divine intervention that ensued. The Battle of Lepanto marked a turning point in history as the Holy League miraculously vanquished the Ottoman armada, liberating thousands of captive Christians. Pius V attributed this triumph to the intercession of the Mother of God, bestowing upon the world the enduring legacy of the Feast of Our Lady of the Rosary. The significance of Mary's intercession resurfaced during the Battle of Vienna in 1683, where Blessed Marco d’Aviano rallied the besieged Christian forces, urging them to seek solace and strength through the rosary. Under the divine protection of the Blessed Virgin Mary, the Polish relief army secured a resounding victory, thwarting the Ottoman threat to Christendom once again. This artwork serves as a poignant reminder of Mary's unwavering guidance and the transformative power of prayer throughout history. The Queen of Heaven continues to lead the faithful in their spiritual battles, offering solace and hope to all who seek her intercession. In our contemporary age, beset by myriad challenges, Mary beckons us to emulate the faith and resilience of our ancestors, trusting in the enduring promise of redemption and salvation. Through the timeless message conveyed by "Madonna of Victory and the Rosary," viewers are inspired to embrace the fighting faith of Christianity, fortified by the unwavering support of Our Lady, who intercedes on behalf of humanity with boundless love and compassion.
