The words to O Salutaris Hostia (O Saving Victim) were composed by Saint Thomas Aquinas for the feast of Corpus Christi, which the Church established n 1264. We sing it typically at Benediction after worshiping the exposed Eucharist. The two verses of the song were actually from a larger hymn that Saint Thomas wrote about our Lord’s institution of the Eucharist at the Last Supper and His Passion. (source: ourcatholicprayers.com)

The English version of the lyrics are:

O saving Victim, opening wide
The gate of Heav'n to us below!
Our foes press on from every side;
Thine aid supply, thy strength bestow.

To your great name be endless praise,
Immortal Godhead, One in Three;
O grant us endless length of days
In our true native land with thee.

This beautiful card was published by the Bouasse-Jeune company in Paris in the 1890s. The company was formed in 1867 when the younger brother at Bouasse-Lebel, Emile Bouasse, left the company his older brother ran and started his own company. We believe the Jeune part of the company name is Louis Le Jeune, who since about 1856 had been the number two man at L. Turgis, the other great holy card publisher in Paris. Thus the third great holy card company of Paris was formed; the three companies created work that was generally regarded as the best in the world. The back of this particular card, shown above, was printed for an ordination in another country in 1896. (source: udayton.edu)

** IMPORTANT ** IMAGE IS SMALLER THAN THE PAPER!!
There is a white border around the image. About 0.5" for 5x7 and 1.3" for 8.5x11". It gives our pictures a finished look, and they look good when framed without a matt.

– Acid-free fine art paper.
– Archival pigments, rated to last for generations.
– Cardboard backer
– Above story of the art
– Enclosed in a tight-fitting, crystal clear bag.

Thanks for your interest!

Thanks!
Sue & John
