A new mural painted by artist Adam Cvijanovic, the north and west panels seen here, was unveiled at St. Patrick's Cathedral on Wednesday, Sept. 17, 2025, in New York. The mural, which is the largest permanent artwork commissioned for the cathedral in its 146-year history, celebrates the 1879 Apparition at Knock, Ireland, the faith of generations of immigrants to New York, and the service of New York City's first responders.
