French Bronze Holy Island of the Child Jesus and medallion of the Holy Face. The medal presents, on the front, a well-rendered representation of Sainte-Ile de Lisieux. On the reverse side is a chrysanthemum sunburst design entirely surrounded by the Latin text MAGISTRA MUNDO SIMPLICES INFANTIUM DOCET VIAS. This text is taken from the Liturgy of the Hours, common to Virgins or Doctors of the Church - Memorial for S. Therese of the Child Jesus and the Holy Face.
The medal, made of bronze and circular in shape, was awarded by the Abbey of Sainte-Madeleine du Barroux located in Le Barroux, in Vaucluse, France, to commemorate the centenary of the death of Sainte-Hénée, the humble young Carmelite from Lisieux, France, known affectionately to English speakers as Little Flower.
