Prints of St. Therese painting by Sr. Genevieve of the Holy Face is available to the public for the first time!

Perhaps the most treasured work of art at the Basilica is a painting of St. Therese created by the saint's sister, Celine (Sr. Genevieve of the Holy Face). The painting was a gift from the Discalced Carmelite Nuns at the convent of Carmel in Lisieux. Oral history states that the painting traveled to Rome for the event of Thérèse's canonization by Pope Pius XI at a ceremony on May 17, 1925.
