It will be open in the presence of Bishop Domenico Pompili, today at 4 pm, under the arches of the Papal Palace of Rieti, the exhibition on San Felice da Cantalice. Vincenzo Scasciafratti of the Ilex – Cantalice Cultural Association, in collaboration with the Cantalic collector Eliseo Patacchiola, is in charge of the exhibition, who has collected artifacts, testimonies and documents on the co-patron of the Diocese of Rieti. In the exhibition, the “crown of Fra Felice” will be presented for the first time, an object of artistic craftsmanship created by the ceramist Barbara Lancia, with the aim of reproducing in life size what was probably the Rosary crown used in life by San Felice , which he himself made with “perch bone” and ended up as a gift as a relic to the Lorraine princess Elizabeth, Duchess of Bavaria. The exhibition coincides with the traditional pilgrimage on the eve of August 15th to the sanctuary of San Felice all’Acqua. The exhibition therefore opens an ideal bridge between Rieti and Cantalice by exploring, through the figure of the Capuchin friar, the Franciscan connotations of the Holy Valley and the world of popular spirituality of the territory, which in the case of the sanctuary of San Felice all’Acqua is enriched with Marian aspects and the impact of peasant and transhumant culture.
