On the left of the wall we can see a deceased in pain sentenced to Purgatory who wanted to get in touch with the living, asking for prayers. - - - RIGHT: Photographic reproduction of a burn mark left on Saturday 13 October 1696, on the apron of Sister Maria Herendorps a lay religious of the Benedictine monastery of Winnemberg (Germany) from the hand of the deceased Sister Chiara Schoelers, religious chorister of the same Order, victim of the plague in 1637. At the bottom of the photo we can see the burnt imprint of two hands, left by the same nun on a strip of canvas. - The tiny century-old â??Piccolo Museo Del Purgatorioâ?? holds a collection of bibles, prayer books, tabletops, and articles of clothing said to have been singed by the hands of souls in purgatory.
