Last Sunday, the City Council of Herencia dressed up to host the official presentation of the poster for Holy Week 2024, an event that marks the beginning of preparations for one of the most heartfelt and rooted celebrations in the municipality.
The ceremony was attended by councilors M.ª Eugenia Díaz-Pacheco and M.ª Inmaculada Ortega Fernández-Caballero, who, along with the parish priests Alberto Domínguez and Julián Martín, welcomed all attendees. In an atmosphere filled with anticipation and devotion, the work that will represent Herencia’s Holy Week next year was revealed.
The poster, created by the talented Víctor García-Hidalgo García-Peñuela, has captured the essence of Holy Week in Herencia, conveying through his art the depth and emotion of this festivity. García-Hidalgo, recognized for his ability to capture tradition and religious sentiment in his creations, has been the winner, for the second time, of the contest organized by the Brotherhoods Board of Holy Week of Herencia for the selection of this significant poster.
The choice of García-Hidalgo as the author of the poster was no coincidence. His proposal has stood out among the others, once again demonstrating his commitment to tradition and his ability to connect with the community’s spirit. This distinction reaffirms the recognition of his career and his special connection to Holy Week in Herencia.
The presentation of the poster has not only served to announce the events and processions that will take place during Holy Week, but it has also been a moment of unity and celebration for the community. The event has reinforced the sense of belonging and the devotion of the people of Herencia to their traditions, bringing together the faithful, brotherhood members, and onlookers in anticipation of what promises to be an unforgettable Holy Week.
As Herencia prepares to live its Holy Week 2024, the image created by Víctor García-Hidalgo García-Peñuela will serve as a constant reminder of the depth and spiritual richness of these celebrations. The community eagerly awaits the opportunity to experience and share the moments of reflection, devotion, and tradition that characterize this important festivity.
