About the piece
In classic Savoia style, “Adoremus” presents the holy family and a shepherd quietly adoring the new Christ child. The child is portrayed in a manger which offers an insight into His humble beginnings. In the distance stands the Manti, UT temple which symbolizes the celestial glory that Christ will attain. The word “Adoremus” is ancient Latin and means, “we adore.” The painting is a commemoration of what it means to adore the Christ child and celebrate the life that will bring mankind back to the House of the Lord. The size of the painting is: 32x24 inches, oil on wood.
