This digital portrait depicts Saint Carlo Acutis, the first millennial saint of the Catholic Church. Dressed in his casual everyday clothing—jeans, a red polo, and a navy jacket—Carlo stands as a radiant witness that holiness is possible in every age. A golden ornate halo surrounds his head with the inscription Sanctus Carolus Acutis.

Symbols fill the scene with meaning:

  • Carlo holds a monstrance, symbolizing his profound Eucharistic devotion.

  • In his other hand rests a laptop, inscribed with his famous reminder: “We are all born originals, but many die as photocopies.”

  • A rosary drapes from his hand, representing his Marian devotion.

  • At his feet rests a soccer ball, recalling his joyful youth.

  • A white lily blooms nearby, a sign of purity.

The warm golden tones and Renaissance-inspired details blend with modern symbolism, capturing Carlo as a saint of our digital age.

Short Biography

Carlo Acutis (1991–2006) was born in London and raised in Milan, Italy. From a young age, he showed an extraordinary love for Jesus in the Eucharist, never missing daily Mass and hours of adoration. Gifted with computer skills, he created a website cataloguing Eucharistic miracles worldwide, earning him the title “Cyber Apostle of the Eucharist.” At just 15 years old, he offered his life and suffering from leukemia for the Church and the Pope. He died in Assisi, the city of his hero Saint Francis, and was canonized in 2024.
