In this antique French holy card, Joseph is holding the baby Jesus, who is holding his Sacred Heart. This is very rare in Catholic art to get these two powerful Icons in this same image: St. Joseph and the Sacred Heart. The colors are rich and warm and have a vintage feel. This is a companion to Our Lady of the Sacred Heart, and The Sacred Heart, all designed by the same French artist. 

The words in the gold mandorla (the full halo around their bodies) translate into “Go to Joseph. He is powerful by the Heart of Jesus.” And the words at the bottom say “Saint Joseph, Model and Patron (for) the Friends of the Sacred Heart.” In parenthesis it says, “100 days of indulgence,” which meant if you did some prayers on the back of the card, for a certain length of time, the act would fulfill an item from the Vatican-issued Enchiridion Indulgentarium (Handbook of Indulgences) and allow you 100 days less in purgatory.

Displayed by itself, or as a trio with Our Lady and Jesus, this vintage French print is a beautiful depiction of Saint Joseph, Foster Father of Jesus, Patron of Families, and Patron of the Universal Church.
