Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

St. Louis de Montfort's classic, illuminated by 62 original full-color illustrations.Experience The Secret of the Rosary through an edition that brings its teachings into vivid visual form. Created especially for this volume, the artwork accompanies de Montfort's words with rich color, sacred symbolism, and scenes that invite the reader to look closely and linger.This illustrated edition began with a recognition: de Montfort's writing is itself a work of art. His accounts of conversion, images of divine love, and urgent calls to prayer stir the imagination. Here, those words become the inspiration for a collection of thought-provoking illustrations, each developed through close study of its accompanying chapter or section.This edition adds: - 62 newly created color illustrations, including artwork for each of the fifty Roses and the book's additional sections.- A new preface exploring the connection between sacred art, attentive reading, and devotion to the Rosary.- An "About the Art" section explaining the images' symbolism, spiritual context, and relationship to de Montfort's teachings.Developed with the assistance of AI and modern technology, the illustrations use luminous color and spacious white backgrounds to encourage contemplation. A rose, a gesture, an open doorway, or a shaft of light can become a visual reminder of a teaching, something to carry into prayer long after the book is closed.Designed for readers discovering de Montfort for the first time and those returning to a beloved spiritual companion, this edition brings together devotional reading and the pleasure of spending time with beautiful art. It offers a meaningful gift for someone devoted to the Rosary and a welcoming volume to keep close for reflection.Read slowly. Spend time with the images. Carry what you discover into your next Rosary, and draw closer to Christ through Mary.
