04 Aug 07 - A reminder that this group is for photos of art related to those saints who have been designated 'DOCTORS OF THE CHURCH'. This is not a general pool for Catholic photos, no matter how beautiful those are too! Thanks.

About Doctores Ecclesiae

Doctors of the Church are writers who have received this title from the Church owing to their pre-eminence in theology and holiness. They are extolled by the Church on account of their brilliant exposition and skillful defense of Catholic doctrine and mysticism.

There are currently 33 Doctors of the Church, but since the Middle Ages, there have been primarily 4 great Doctors of the Western Church and 4 of the Eastern Church who have been celebrated in sacred art:-

St Ambrose, St Augustine, St Jerome & St Gregory the Great; St Athanasius, St John Chrysostom, St Gregory of Nazianzus & St Basil.

For a complete list of all 33 Doctors of the Church, visit this site.

This group invites you to post photos of Church art and architecture, relics, associated places etc relating to any of these 33 Doctors of the Church.
