Vatican Museum: Beauty that
unites! 27
Beauty creates communion. It unites onlookers from a
distance, uniting past, present and future. Pope Francis has recalled this on a
number of occasions. The Church has always translated the universality of the
Good News into the language of art. From this premise, this dramatic moment in
history characterized by uncertainty and isolation, gives rise to this
initiative which is a partnership between the Vatican Museum and Vatican News:
Masterpieces from the Vatican Collection accompanied by comments from the words
of the Popes.

Mysteriously united
to Christ,
the one who suffers with love
and meek self-abandonment
to the will of God becomes
a living offering for the
salvation of the world.

Day of Sick 2008)
