A Venetian Day

Venice is not too far from Lake Garda and so proved to be a perfect day trip. I remember that the last time I was there they demand cash for going into the churches if it is a tourist visit.

The Cathedral at Trent

Thumbnail

First the little church at the end of the street, Santa Trinita is where the opening procession of the Council started. The Cathedral is a nice affair with knotted stone pillars and a pair of strange staircases going I assume somewhere

That was a Council

Thumbnail

You can’t come to the north of Lake Garda and not go to Trent. There is not much there of Council fame, but I feel that my Catholic batteries have been restored – that my orthodoxy has been renewed – that my zeal for truth and clear definition has been blown into a burning flame

Backing our Lady

Some avid readers noticed that in the picture above there was a rather smashing backing to the Blessed Virgin Mary (or Blessed Virgin Mary in a veil as she is at the moment).Indeed. Being inspired by the sight of an unused altar frontal for an altar that no longer exists I could think of nothing better to do with it than to fashion it cunningly into a gothique backing to Our Lady.
