Description
An image of the Virgin Mary often contained a symbol pointing towards the future suffering of her son. The Virgin wears a heavy mantle which falls across her front with swag-like folds. In her right hand, she holds the naked Christ-Child. Both have a hole place at the centre of their heart to symbolise purity, love, comfort, and peace. And to represent the unity and their relationship between a mother and child.
