To the darkness of a world descended into the chaos and brutality of the Holocaust, St Edith Stein offers the light of beauty, art, and sanctity. Her assertion that ‘all genuine art is revelation and all artistic creation is sacred service,’ proclaims her understanding of the splendour which the work of art reveals to the world. Our own lives, ultimately, are a living artwork.
Martyred in Auschwitz, Stein becomes a living image of surrender to the Cross of Christ. Stein’s ultimate sacrifice is the final flourish of the Master’s brush, offered by her in union with the Divine Artist.
