How the Pope s historic visit to Iraq highlighted Islamic State s destruction of Christian heritage—and the artists working on rebuilding it

A statue of Virgin Mary that had been desecrated by Isis was blessed by the Pope © DPA picture alliance/Alamy Stock Photo Artists played a prominent role in Pope Francis’s historic visit to Iraq last month, presenting the pontiff with multiple works including plaster sculptures, restored statues and crosses made from burned wood as testaments to the trauma citizens endured under Islamic State (Isis), and expressions of their hopes for a future of religious tolerance. The Vatican framed the first visit by a Pope to Iraq as a chance to repair damaged interfaith relations. In 2014 Isis swept through the northern Nineveh Plains the heartland of Iraq’s Christian communities razing more than 350 churches, destroying art and persecuting Iraqi Christians, whose numbers have dwindled from 1.5 million before the US-led invasion in 2003 to less than a third of that today. Iraqi and US-led coalition forces ousted Isis in 2017.

The pope s historic visit to Iraq

by Andrew Bernard Print this article Dressed all in black and wearing a Rolex, Abu Bakr al Baghdadi slowly climbed the pulpit of the Great Mosque of al Nuri in Mosul and declared himself caliph of the Islamic State. It was June 2014, and Baghdadi was attempting to lend historical and religious legitimacy to an orgy of violence that already included beheadings and human crucifixions and would soon add genocide and mass rape-slavery. On March 7 of this year, dressed all in white, His Holiness Pope Francis slowly climbed the steps of a temporary platform in a public square surrounded by the ruins of four churches in Mosul. Reports say that his sciatica has been bothering him, and in videos from the trip, he has an obvious limp.
