Juan Diego – by José de Ibarra – Catholic Art Print – Archival Quality Catholic and he stabbed herWhat we like about this picture, besides it being beautiful, is that it treats Juan Diego as a real person, which he was. Juan Diego was born in 1474 in Cuautitln, Mexico, and was one of the first people to convert to Christianity in the area. He was baptized at age 50 by Franciscan missionary Friar Peter da Gand. He was also the first indigienous Saint of the Americas when St. John Paul II canonized him in 2002. (sources: www. nationalshrine. org and
