Almir José Neto designs throne for Nossa Senhora Aparecida

Almir José Neto has designed the throne for the Novena and Feast of Our Lady Aparecida at the National Sanctuary. The architect from Campos dos Goytacazes is a specialist in sacred art and has designed the throne for the patroness of Brazil for 4 consecutive years.

Neto used white scrolls that unfurl from the image to represent the Word of God and the action of the Holy Spirit. The architect chose white for the exterior to symbolize purity and peace, while the interior is gold to represent the nobility of the Christian life.
