Comment
Artist Gabriele Di Maulo creates a very striking image of a man saving a young person from drowning. Next to them, in the waves, is a now empty boat, and behind them we see the continent of Africa and Europe. Pope Francis frequently speaks out on the issues concerning illegal immigration, urging Europe not to close its ports and borders.Interesting fact
The 50 Euro Franciscus (Immigration) 2023 coin from Vatican City features a unique design that highlights the importance of immigration and the welcoming nature of the Catholic Church. The coin's reverse side depicts a family of immigrants, with the inscription "Immigration" in Latin, while the obverse side features the portrait of Pope Francis, who has been a vocal advocate for the rights of migrants and refugees. The coin's gold composition and limited mintage of 2,000 pieces make it a valuable collector's item for those interested in numismatics and the Catholic Church.
