Here are some images of the Mass, by way of our friends at Rinascimento Sacro.

The Monsters of Bosco Sacro (link roundup) "The many monstrous statues (of the Bosco Sacro/Sacred Grove in Italy) appear to be unconnected to any rational plan and appear to have been strewn almost randomly about the area."

Giovanie e Tradizione in Bergamo, Italy 2009

Accordingly, I was interested to read about this Italian conference on Rinascimento Sacro which I share here simply as an FYI, and as an attempt to track the discussions that are occuring:

Italian Conference on Liturgical Reform of Benedict XVI 2009

Born at Agrigento in Sicily, Alfano left the poor south and its provincial ways to study law at the Catholic Sacro Cuore university in Milan, the sophisticated and rich north.

In addition to the advance pictures already posted, our good friends at Rinascimento Sacro have let us know that images taken by the Franciscans of the Immaculate, who also provided the liturgical service including the major ministers and the chant for this occasion, have become available.

Thanks to Giovanie e Tradizione for sending a reminder to the NLM of a recent event of theirs, and for pointing out that the Mass associated with this event was captured by the good folks over at Rinascimento Sacro.

The Mass was celebrated in the church of Santa Maria Ad Nives in Bergamo and was attached to a conference held by Giovanie e Tradizione on the preceding Saturday evening, "L'educazione al Sacro, al Bello, al Vero: vie per la nuova evangelizzazione: la S. Messa nel rito romano antico."

The photos, taken by "Newman" of Rinascimento Sacro, capture the Mass of Septuagesima Sunday (calendar of the usus antiquior) which was celebrated by Fr. Vincenzo Nuara, O. P, founder of Giovanie e Tradizione as well as the "Priestly Friends of Summorum Pontificum".

Rinascimento Sacro shares some very edifying photos from a recent requiem Mass offered on January 24th at the Monastery of Murate in Città di Castello by the Franciscans of the Immaculate for the anniversary of the death of one of their friars.
