Sacred art
Statues and images
The portrait kept with St. Josephine Bakhita is the image this library has of Josephine. The honour goes to the person, and through the person to God. It is not a machine, and it is not a substitute for the life written below.
Born in Darfur. Kidnapped, sold, tattooed. Baptized in Italy. Died 1947. Canonized 2000. Her name means lucky.
