NadaTeTurbe Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 http://www.archives-carmel-lisieux.fr/carmel/index.php/couple-martin/une-icone-de-la-famille-martin This is an icon with the whole Martin family - the parents, the sisters, and the children who died in their young ages. Thought it would please the fan of ste Therese Also, if you can, browse the website, it's the archive of the carmel of Lisieux, it's full of interesting things about Therese, but also about the life of carmelite in these times, like here : http://www.archives-carmel-lisieux.fr/english/carmel/index.php/les-objets-accueil or here : http://www.archives-carmel-lisieux.fr/english/carmel/index.php/au-carmel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've gone through the archive's website before (although not recently) and there's so much on it. You can literally spend a whole day reading, looking at pictures, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seven77 Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 I'm a little confused… are the little girl and the baby below both St. Therese? In addition to being depicted as a Carmelite nun? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I'm quite sure that they are the children that died in infancy or childbirth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
