The image depicts the most famous and popular picture of the Sacred Heart of Jesus by the Italian painter Pompeo Batoni (+1787). It was realised in 1760 andwas placed in a Chapel in the Jesuit Church of the Gesù in Rome. This work became the official image for the popular devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. This painting of the Sacred Heart of Jesus was inspired by the apparition of Jesus, under the title of the Sacred Heart, to St Margaret Mary Alacoque (+1690). This image is a memento commemorating the first century since the feast of the Sacred Heart of Jesus started being celebrated.
