The Virgin of Bitterness stars in an innovative Easter poster full of light and color (17/02/2020)

The Sanctuary of La Purísima hosted the presentation of the poster of Holy Week 2020 of Mazarrón that this year shows the Virgin of Bitterness, an image belonging to the brotherhood of San Juan that is responsible for organizing the events of this year.

The mayor of Mazarrón, Gaspar Miras, and councilors Conchi Aparicio, Tomás Ureña and Salvador Sánchez attended the presentation ceremony in which representatives of the councils and brotherhoods of Holy Week were also present, both Mazarrón and Puerto de Mazarrón.

The poster is the work of the Mazarron photographer Juan Francisco Belmar who explained that this year's poster is not a poster to use because "when taking a quick look at the posters of the last 36 years, all the posters used to be quite dark" but in This time "the poster is white and full of colors and bright tones that has more to do with the feeling of life and joy that is the final message that conveys Holy Week," explained the author.

Also, it is not a traditional poster in its measures as it is in 70x70 square format.

The poster was discovered by the photographer himself and the president of the brotherhood of San Juan, Laly Agüera.

In addition, the author has donated the original to become part of the subsidiary funds of the brotherhood and the parish of San Andrés Apóstol and San Antonio de Padua, with digital copy inside, which was delivered to Encarna Raja, member of the brotherhood that trusted Belmar for the first Holy Week poster he made in 2008 for the brotherhood of San Juan.

Belmar has since made posters also for the brotherhoods of San Juan and the Holy Sepulcher.
