Presented by the Class of 1960 The execution of a mosaic is one of the most precise and exacting art forms. Its production is a slow and careful process: imagination not inhibited, but enhanced by the technical. It is a work of strength, not sentiment: it will endure. A harmony of the whole is reflected that is more splendid than the individu¬ ality of its stones, and yet it is upon these stones, each different in size, shape, tone, that the beauty of the whole depends. Each stone has its own value, considered apart, but this value is fully realized only when it is contrasted with and complemented by the others in the total design. In the entirety of a mosaic We can see potential widened by participation, and the difference is emphasized between loneliness and standing alone. Every stone has its own place, and only one place, yet there is freedom in the work for the startling, the intense, the swift. It must not be a static creation. The mosaic embodies the tradition of great empires—of cultures, religious and aesthetic, that are ours today—and yet is not limited by that tradition. Beneath the intricacy of its design lies the conception of of the artist; the character of the final effect is his as well as that of the materials he has used. The tools are many that have made the mosaic what it is and what it will become: those that cut the stones, those that round and polish them, those that fit them into place and hold them there. But because of the frailty of the component parts, the perfect work the artist dreamed of is not realized immediately; it is time that softens colors, defines the pattern. Because the color gold, most brilliant, richest, reconciles and unifies the contrasting colors of a mosaic, and because each stone has been chosen for its own capacity to absorb and reflect light, this art form uses light in its fullest purity. The splendour of the creation depends upon the quality and quantity of light the stones diffuse. In such a Way the love of the Sacred Heart illuminates the mosaic of Manhattanville:—His love is our strength and it is our completion.
