👣 Louis IX walked barefoot through medieval Paris.
Not as a king, but as a pilgrim.
Carrying the crown of thorns, he transformed it into a symbol of royal holiness.

🚨 THIS WEEK🚨
🖼️ There’s one image. A wreath. Soft, leafy, peaceful.
Then, 700 years of silence.
No thorns. No crown.
Just absence.
@FaithTibble explains how that silence shaped the violent iconography we know today.
