San Giuseppe il Lavoratore - Dipinto di Dino Carbetta
“Saint Joseph the Worker – Painting by Dino Carbetta”…
Establishing deep devotion to Saint Joseph among Catholics, and in response to the “May Day” celebrations for workers sponsored by Communists, Pope Pius XII instituted the feast of Saint Joseph the Worker in 1955. Saint Joseph, the carpenter, and foster father of Jesus, is but one example of the holiness of human labor. Saint Joseph is held up as a model of such work. Pius XII emphasized this when he said, “The spirit flows to you and all men from the heart of the God-man, Savior of the world, but certainly, no worker was ever more completely and profoundly penetrated by it than the foster father of Jesus, who lived with Him in the closest intimacy and community of family life and work.” To capture the devotion to Saint Joseph within the Catholic liturgy, in 1870, Pope Pius IX declared Saint Joseph the patron of the Universal Church. This quiet Father was given the noble task of caring and watching over the Virgin Mary and Jesus now cares for and watches over the Church and models all the dignity of human work. This painting is also a combination of many images captured from Rome and Assisi. Here along with the young Christ, this portrayal reveals both Perfect and Sacred Hearts.
