Obraz Świętej Rodziny przy stole z sanktuarium w Studziannie-Poświętnem w świetle tradycji ikonograficznej, wymowy ideowej graficznego pierwowzoru oraz w homilii koronacyjnej Prymasa Stefana Wyszyńskiego

The painting of the Holy Family at the table in the sanctuary in Studzianna-Poświętne was created in 1629 on the basis of a graphic by Jacques Callot. Numerous reports of miraculous healings and graces received thanks to this painting made it popular with the faithful and numerous pilgrims visiting the sanctuary from the end of the 17th century. The culmination of these centuries-old devotional practices was the festive coronation of the painting of the Holy Family by Primate Stefan Wyszyński in August 18, 1968. The iconography of the painting is focused on the Holy Family gathered at the table during a meal. Saint Joseph, who is giving Jesus the chalice with wine, plays an important role in this scene. The text of this paper is an attempt to more fully understand the sense of the iconography of the painting from Studzianna and its graphic prototype. Following the way in which the figure of St. Joseph is presented in the context of the Holy Family over a meal, attempts were made to indicate the complex ideological sense of this depiction. However, in the context of the history of the cult of the painting from Studzianna and the solemn coronation in 1968, the image of the Holy Family in the Primate’s homily was read according to the current context.
