Silkscreen Live and let live.

Description

The  Paso de la Hoja  Cofradía put in the hands of Lucía Huertas the realization of the “illustration and expression of the Desire in the Leaf “for the corresponding pages of the book of San Frutos Pajarero (patron saint of Segovia) corresponding to the year 2017. Once a year a miracle occurs in Segovia. On the night of October 24 to 25, San Frutos, the patron saint of the city, turns another page of his book. This unique event occurs in front of all those who congregate at the door of the Cathedral, in front of his statue.

The message adopted as Desire is a phrase that is well known to all of us “Live and let live”. It belonged to an 18th-century German playwright, poet, philosopher, and historian named Friedrich von Schiller.

Lucía borrows this idea to accompany the “Paso de la Hoja” because she believes that the acquaintance of San Frutos pajarero about his love and respect for others and nature is implicit in this prayer. It encompasses respect and tolerance for others and our environment.
