Instagram labeled a bunch of my photos as AI so now is a good time to remind everyone that none of my photos are AI, nor are they edited with it.
This is an AI-free zone
I’d like to thank @SirEvanAmato and @EduardHabsburg for this incredible weekend in Florence filled with the most interesting people and the most captivating conversations
I have a feeling this is the first of many more ;)
Wow…what an incredible weekend!
Over 50 people joined me and @EduardHabsburg in Florence for the unveiling of a commissioned portrait of St. Catherine.
What a crowd it was: top thinkers from Harvard, the Pentagon, finance, and the arts joined to discuss why St. Catherine is a saint for our time. It was an inspiring weekend with loads of thought-provoking and edifying conversations.
But more than anything, it was a testament to St. Catherine’s admonition to “be who you were meant to be, and you will set the world on fire.” Few things are more beautiful than getting a diverse crowd of people who are following their calling – in the arts, business, religious life, or otherwise – together to see how the Lord works uniquely through us all.
In a time when it’s easy to despair and lament about all that’s wrong with the world (as those in St. Catherine’s time certainly had reason to do), it’s incredibly encouraging to focus on the good, and on those who remain faithful through it all. We met with people whose families have been stewarding the flame for centuries, as well as with others who just came into the Church at Easter. In every case, the unifying factor was a whole-hearted dedication to goodness, truth, and beauty: even, and especially, when these transcendentals seem most under attack.
I’ll be back in the coming weeks to share more about what we covered over our three day weekend in Florence, sharing more photos, videos, conversations, and interviews where appropriate.
In the meantime, I want to thank Carl-Nikolas von Tiedemann for creating such a beautiful portrait for my family (one we will pass down for generations!), as well as everyone who joined us to make this weekend so enjoyable. Above all, I thank St. Catherine for her example, and for all that she can teach us about following the Lord and becoming all that he made us to be.
Sancta Catharina, ora pro nobis!
There are very few cities where art can be experienced for free and in such abundance as in Florence
