            Abstract
            Devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus has been controversial from its beginning in the life of the French Visitationist nun Margaret Mary Alacoque (1647-1690), who established the devotion after a series of mystical visions of Christ. Under the leadership of Sister Sophie Barat, founder of the Society of the Sacred Heart in 1800, the devotion was taken around the world in the course of the nineteenth century. Wherever it went, the devotion took the shape of an evolving visual culture. Even during Alacoque's lifetime, imagery was a fundamental part of practicing the devotion. The Sacred Heart of Jesus traces the unfolding visual biography of the Sacred Heart, showing how imagery and visual practice document the history of the devotion and the remarkable range of its evolution.
             
            Devotie aan het Heilige Hart van Jezus is al vanaf het eerste ontstaan controversieel. De Franse non Marguerite-Marie Alacoque (1647-1690) begon met deze Heilige-Hart-verering na een opeenvolging van openbaringen van Christus te hebben gehad. Jezuïeten, spirituele goeroes en priesters tot op de dag van vandaag maken deze verering tot het centrum van hun theologische studie en beleving. The Sacred Heart of Jesus is een uitgebreide visuele biografie van het Heilige Hart. Het laat de opmerkelijke evolutie van dit fenomeen zien, maar ook hoe beeldende kunst en rituelen deze geschiedenis documenteren.
