Vero Ritratto del Cuore della Beata Chiara di Montefalco
True Portrait of the Heart of Blessed Clare of Montefalco

Letterpress with woodcut on paper

GTA-000860 Box 1
Broadside telling the story of St. Clare of Montefalco: “Jesus, carrying His Cross, appeared to Clare and said: “I have been searching for a long time, daughter, to find a firm and solid place on which to plant My Cross, and I have not found one more suitable than your heart. You must receive it and allow it to take root.”
When her heart was opened after her death, the Cross and other instruments of the Passion were found within, formed solidly in fibrous tissue. The crucifix was found to be about the size of a person's thumb. The corpus was white and clearly formed as if sculpted, except for the tiny wound of the lance, which was bright red. A white tissue covers the loins of the corpus.”
--from The Franciscan Book of Saints

Shown is the heart of a man who, after having repented, gives himself to sin again, and thus becomes an absolute slave to sin and Satan. Note the apprehensive angel and the fast-fleeing dove of the Holy Spirit.

An excerpt from The Mystery of the Wizard Clip, which describes decades of strange goings-on where the family’s farm was located:
Mrs McSherry was frightened one day by hearing the cradle rock violently,
having in it her infant son William, whilst no one was near it; she called her
husband to witness the fact, and started to run to it, fearing lest her child
should be thrown out against the wall, but he would not allow her, saying
“God is more powerful than the devil”--and the infant was not hurt. And
Mr L. told those parents the Voice had told him to tell them “It was the
Devil who was trying to destroy the Child.”
This cradle belonged to the family of Rev. William McSherry, S.J. and it is believed he slept in it as an infant. McSherry served as superior of the Maryland Province of the Society of Jesus from 1833 to 1837 and was then appointed President of Georgetown College. With Thomas Mulledy, S.J., he organized the 1838 sale of 272 enslaved people owned by the Maryland Province. The bulk of the down payment from the sale was applied to Georgetown College’s significant building debt. Details of the University’s efforts to engage and reconcile with this history can be read in the Report of The Working Group on Slavery, Memory, and Reconciliation to the President of Georgetown University, Summer 2016.
