Cardinal Sarto's Office in Venice

Greetings from the Cardinal's Palace in Venice.

This is the desk of Cardinal Sarto, left untouched.

He left for the conclave in the Vatican in 1903 and never expected to never again return to his beloved home.  It is said he often wept he so missed the Veneto. 

Prayers of joy and thanksgiving were offered here today.
