Prodigious Altarpiece Of The Madonna Ta’ Pinu
This book by the National Sanctuary of Our Lady of Ta’ Pinu documents the entire restoration and conservation process carried out on the beloved 400-year old painting of Our Lady of Ta’ Pinu four years ago, along with the history of the same sanctuary and the painting itself.
The Prodigious Altarpiece of the Madonna Ta’ Pinu contains 128 full-colour pates, with more than 160 images. The photography and design is by Daniel Cilia.
‘Following restoration in 2020, the painting of Ta’ Pinu has recovered the pristine glory and beauty Karmni Grima beheld in 1883 when Our Lady addressed her from the painting. The same happens in our regard today, Mary is still calling us to come to her to experience the beauty of our God.
Our Lady of Ta’ Pinu is still entreating us to pray because prayer keeps us alive, connecting us with God’s own beauty. May every pilgrim who accedes to Our Lady of Ta’ Pinu gleans in her lovely eyes God’s own eyes full of love and thus is imbued with the strength to pursue with conviction in his earthly pilgrimage onward to the glory of heaven which is our true home, because we are citizens of the heavenly homeland.’ – Santuary Rector Gerard Buhagiar.
