Vatican Museum: Beauty that
Unites! 50
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.

Dear sons, be imbued
with the hope
that is so much a part of the mystery
of the Ascension of Jesus.
Be deeply conscious of Christ’s
victory and triumph over sin and death.
Realize that the strength of Chist
is greater than our weakness,
greater than the weakness of the whole world.

Homily on the Solemnity of the Ascension, 24 May 1979)
