List Of Canonically Crowned Images
The following list enumerates a selection of Blessed Virgin Mary, Marian, Saint Joseph, Josephian, and Christological images venerated in the Roman Catholic Church, authorised by a pope who has officially granted a papal bull of Canonical coronation, pontifical coronation to be carried out either by the pontiff, his papal legate or a papal nuncio. The prescription of the solemn rite to crown venerated images is embedded in the ''Ordo Coronandi Imaginem Beatae Mariae Virginis'' published by the Holy Office on 25 May 1981. Prior to 1989, pontifical decrees concerning the authorization of canonical coronations were handwritten on parchment. After 1989, the Congregation for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments began issuing the specific recognition to crown a religious image, spelling out its approved devotional title and authorizing papal legate. Several venerated images of Jesus Christ and Saint Joseph have also been granted a pontifical coronation. __TOC__ ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Our Lady Of Meritxell
Our Lady of Meritxell ( ca, Mare de Déu de Meritxell, ) is an Andorran Roman Catholic statue depicting an apparition of the Virgin Mary. Our Lady of Meritxell is the patron saint of Andorra. The original statue dated from the late 12th century. However, the chapel in which it was housed burned down on September 8 1972, and the statue was destroyed. A replica can be found in the new Meritxell Basilica, designed in 1976 by Ricardo Bofill Taller de Arquitectura. The Catalan philologist Joan Coromines says that "Meritxell" is a diminutive of ''merig'', from the Latin ''meridiem'' (midday in English). Merig is a name used by shepherds to denote a pasture with lot of sun. The image was canonically crowned by Pope Benedict XV on 8 September 1921. Legend In the late 12th century, on January 6, a wild rose in bloom was found by villagers from Meritxell going to Mass in Canillo.

Pope Pius IX
Pope Pius IX ( it, Pio IX, ''Pio Nono''; born Giovanni Maria Mastai Ferretti; 13 May 1792 – 7 February 1878) was head of the Catholic Church from 1846 to 1878, the longest verified papal reign. He was notable for convoking the First Vatican Council in 1868 and for permanently losing control of the Papal States in 1870 to the Kingdom of Italy. Thereafter he refused to leave Vatican City, declaring himself a " prisoner of the Vatican". At the time of his election, he was seen as a champion of liberalism and reform, but the Revolutions of 1848 decisively reversed his policies. Upon the assassination of his Prime Minister Rossi, Pius escaped Rome and excommunicated all participants in the short-lived Roman Republic. After its suppression by the French army and his return in 1850, his policies and doctrinal pronouncements became increasingly conservative, seeking to stem the revolutionary tide. In his 1849 encyclical '' Ubi primum'', he emphasized Mary's role in salvation. In 1 ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Notre Dame D'Afrique
Notre Dame d'Afrique ( English: “Our Lady of Africa”) is a Catholic basilica in Algiers, Algeria. Pope Pius IX granted two Pontifical decrees towards the shrine on the same day on 15 April 1876: * The first decree invoked to canonically crown the venerated Marian image enshrined within. The coronation rites was executed by the Archbishop of Carthage Charles Lavigerie on 30 April 1876. * The second decree which raised the sanctuary to the status of Basilica based on an "immemorial custom".
