Scope and content
Photographic prints relating to the pilgrimage to the Sanctuary of Our Lady of Lourdes, France, marking the centenary of the Marian apparitions of St. Bernadette Soubirous in 1858. The file contains numerous prints used to illustrate a series of articles published on the Lourdes pilgrimage published in 'The Capuchin Annual' (1958). The text of the article indicates that the prints signed ‘L. Von Matt’ were sourced from a publication titled St. Bernadette, a quarto volume of 91 pages, with text of the Saint’s life by Monsignor Francis Trochu, illustrated by 183 pictures in photogravure by Leonard Von Matt. The file also includes many postcard prints of the Rosary Basilica and other shrines associated with the site.
