Original artwork description:
The drawing, in a contemporary figurative style, is inspired by some phrases from the "Letters" of Saint Catherine of Siena (1347-1380): "...We do not seek joy except in Jesus, and we flee all glory that is not that of the cross. Embrace, then, Jesus crucified, raising to Him the gaze of your desire! Consider the fiery love for you that led Jesus to shed blood from every part of His body! Embrace Jesus crucified, lover and beloved, and in Him you will find true life, for He is God who became man. Let your heart and soul burn for the fire of love drawn from Jesus confined on the cross!...".
