Terry at Idle Speculations has posted a collection of photographs of the Curé d'Ars after he had died in 1859.The photographs were taken by Camille Dolard using the wet plate collodion process invented by the Englishman Frederick Scott Archer. They are kept at the Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris.

Let me be the first Father...I think you meant 1859!
Beautiful pictures of a great man. I hope to see his relics shortly.
Do you mean 1859, Father?
Date typo: you meant 1859!
Father, you mean 1859, no?
Father,
Shome mishtake surely... 1959?
1859 sounds closer to the mark!
I think you will find he died in 1859, not 1959. Otherwise, a stunning picture!
Fr,
I think he died in 1859 not 1959
How very devoted Cure D'Ars was to the Holy Eucharist. Two quotes of his particulary made me reflect
"All the good works put together do not equal the sacrifice of the Mass, because they are the work of men, while the Mass is a work of God".
Do not say that you are not worthy of it(the Eucharist). It is true: you are not worthy it, but you need it."
The Curé d'Ars died in 1859.
He died in 1959?
Father, I think you mean 1859.

Oh all right, then, 1859 :-)
What a self righteous bunch we are.
Forgive us Father etc..........
I am always happy to receive corrections. the number of such reflects the fact that I was out for much of yesterday and did not get round to the blog till midday today.
Many thanks for the link
Regards
Terry
