Miniature Medal of Infant Jesus of Prague Purple Dress Gold

The miniature medal is painted according to a well-known statue of the Prague baby Jesus in a purple dress. The statuette of the Infant Jesus of Prague comes from 16th century Spain. It was modeled by a monk to whom Jesus miraculously appeared. The statue was owned by Saint Theresa of Jesus, who greatly revered Jesus' childhood and spread respect for the Child Jesus throughout Spain. The statuette came to Prague as a gift. In 1631, Prague was occupied by the Saxons and the statue was damaged. However, father Cyril from the Mother of God found it after the war and had it repaired. Since then, Baby Jesus has blessed the whole of Prague and miraculous healings have been attributed to him. In 1655, the statue was ceremoniously crowned by the Bishop of Prague. The number of miracles and hearings grew, and for crowds of worshipers, the statue was moved to its current location in 1741. In 1754, empress Maria Theresa dedicated a hand-embroidered dress to Baby Jesus. The worship of the Infant Jesus of Prague began to spread in all countries of the Austrian Empire. At the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, respect for the Baby Jesus spread throughout the world. In 1993, Discalced Carmelites returned to the Church of Our Lady Victorious in Prague. Pope Benedict XVI visited the statue of the Infant Jesus in 2009. In his speech, he stated that the Infant Jesus of Prague presented God's closeness and love with his childish tenderness.
