Photographer’s Note

Here we can see the artificial cave, like many others, created to show and sculpture of Santa Rita. These roses are here to remember one of the most famous miracles of this saint. She was dieing, it was a cold day of January in Italy and Rita asked something to a nun: bring her a red rose that was in her old home. The nun said this was impossible cause it was wintertime but she decided to go and found the red rose in the place. This is a way to show that when we really want something with faith we will get it, even things we guess impossible to get. I guess is an interesting history even for that ones who don't believe.

Aqui aparece a gruta artifical erguida ao lado do santuário, foi criada, como muitas outras, para abrigar a imagem de Santa Rita. As rosas fazem referência a um dos mais famosos milagres da santa. Durante o inverno Rita estava começando a morrer e pediu a uma das freiras do convento para ir até sua antiga casa e lhe trazer uma rosa vermelha que lá havia, a moça retrucou dizendo que era janeiro e não existiam rosas naqueles dias mas acabou indo e encontrou a tal rosa. Isso, ao que parece, serve para mostrar que quando temos muita fé e desejamos algo ardentemente podemos conseguir até mesmo as coisas que parecem impossíveis. Uma história que acho interessante, mesmo para aqueles que não tem fé.
