Description: Ships in plastic between cardboard in a stamped envelope Reverse side text 986 A. - Art Chrtien. Catacombes. A l'origine, les Catacombes taient des carrires abandonnes. Les premiers chrtiens, suspects, perscuts, s'y retrouvaient, non pour y vivre comme on le croit souvent, mais pour exercer le culte et procder leurs inhumations sans exciter les haines latentes. On y voyait d'immenses galeries, formant plusieurs tages. Aux flancs de ces galeries talent pratiques les spul- tures, consistant en loculi ou niches oblongues creuses dans le tuf et scelles par des plaques de marbres. Dans les catacombes on rencontre de petits difices primitifs, en partie construits, en partie souterrains. Le plan de ces glises (on peut dj leur donner ce nom) taient trs varis. En fait, elles reprsentent les toutes premires manifestations de l'art chrtien. Au point de vue architectural, elles ne peuvent avoir un trs grand Intrt, mals spirituellement, elles sont les tmoignages mouvants d'une pense hroque, d'une fidlit vraiment surnaturelle, 986 A. - Christian art. Catacombs. Originally, the catacombs were abandoned careers. The first Christians, suspected, persecuted, found themselves there, not to live there as we often believe, but to exercise worship and make their burials without exciting hatred latent. We saw immense galleries there, forming several floors. On the sides of these galleries spread the sepul- tures, consisting of "locululi" or oblong niches dug in the tuf and sealed by marble plates. In the catacombs we meet small primitive buildings, partly built, partly underground. The plan of these churches (we Can already give them this name) were very varied. In fact, they represent the very first manifestations of Christian art. From an architectural point of view, they cannot have a very great interest, spiritually, they are the testimonies moving from a heroic thought, of a truly fidelity supernatural, Maison d'Art, 15, rue du Midi, Bruxelles.
