Rich illustrated book on the Pontifical College of the Anima
Franz-Xaver Brandmayr (Vienna), former rector of the Pontifical College of the Anima, presented a lavish illustrated book on the occasion of the patron saint's day of the Confraternity of the Anima, which he designed together with Hans Haider and Stephan Kölliker.
The 152 pages feature black-and-white and colour photographs of excellent quality, with great evocative power and humorous touches. However, it is not purely a picture book; the images are accompanied by very detailed texts that introduce all dimensions of religious community life in the centre of Rome.
It describes daily life at Anima as it is not known to outsiders. In addition, 15 priests are presented in interviews. They come from the Netherlands, Italy, Austria, Germany, Czechia, Slovakia, Romania, Slovenia, Latvia and Hungary.
