Описание к видео [4k, 60fps, colorized] (1914) The first Saint ever filmed. Pope Pius X.

Pius X was known for his firm demeanour and sense of personal poverty, reflected by his membership of the Third Order of Saint Francis. He regularly gave sermons from the pulpit, a rare practice at the time. After the 1908 Messina earthquake he filled the Apostolic Palace with refugees, long before the Italian government acted. He rejected any kind of favours for his family; his close relatives chose to remain in poverty, living near Rome.

After his death, a strong cult of devotion followed his reputation for piety and holiness. He was beatified in 1951 and canonized on 29 May 1954 by Pope Pius XII.
