La Beata Vergine Maria - Dipinto di Dino Carbetta – Rose Rosa
“The Blessed Virgin Mary - Painting by Dino Carbetta”… Upon completion of a new and original painting of the teenage Virgin Mary, I sit and stare into her eyes trying to imagine the complexity of the overwhelming magnitude of the future Mother of Christ. Her sincere and loving gaze, illuminating with the glow of the Holy Spirit within her very soul emanates outwardly representing all Mothers. I envision my wonderful Mother as I struggled to bring this two-dimensional representation to life. Again, my humble skills, yet meticulous manner combined to exhaust one complete month of trial and error. Irrevocably, a courageous young teenage Jewish girl is blessed beyond comprehension…
“The Virgin Mother is constantly present on this journey of faith of the People of God towards the light. This is shown especially by the canticle of the "Magnificat," which, having welled up from the depths of Mary's faith at the Visitation, ceaselessly re-echoes in the heart of the Church down the centuries. This is proved by its daily recitation in the liturgy of Vespers and at many other moments of both personal and communal devotion.” (Saint John Paul II)
"My soul magnifies the Lord,
and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior,
for he has looked on his servant in her lowliness.
For behold, henceforth all generations
will call me blessed;
for he who is mighty has done great things for me,
and holy is his name:
and his mercy is from age to age
on those who fear him.
He has shown strength with his arm,
he has scattered the proud-hearted,
he has cast down the mighty from their thrones,
and lifted up the lowly;
he has filled the hungry with good things,
sent the rich away empty.
He has helped his servant Israel,
remembering his mercy,
as he spoke to our fathers,
to Abraham and to his posterity forever." (Lk.1:46-55)
