St. Thérèse of Lisieux is one of the most beloved saints of our age on account of her approachable path to holiness. As she was dying of tuberculosis, she is reported to have declared, “After my death I will let fall a shower of roses.” This image has come to epitomize the power of her heavenly intercession. Many previous paintings of Thérèse in glory have depicted her selectively dropping her floral favors one by one. In their fresh take on the subject, George and Polly wished instead to communicate the exuberant superabundance of grace available to those who follow Thérèse’s “Little Way” of heroic love, childlike devotion, and patient suffering.
