Jean Bellegambe Saint Anne conceiving the Virgin Mary Douai, Musée de la Chartreuse The Immaculate Conception, The Virgin in the Womb How must Mary have felt to be so special, from the moment of conception. To be vouchsafed in purity and perfection in order to bear her Son, Our Lord and Savior? These mysteries are far more than I can comprehend. Motherhood of mortals was enough for me. ******************** Rebecca over at recuerda mi corazon has invited others to join in on her Virgin a Day, Mornings with Mary project, twelve days of sharing Virgin Mary images leading up to her feast day on December 12. |

ReplyDeleteWhat a stunning painting! I love that you are 'the Rosary Lady' I was born on October 7!

It's more than any of us can comprehend. That's why it's a mystery!

Beautiful painting Shannon! I'm wondering if I should print it out to show my first graders for tomorrow's class? A great image for them! I have the coloring page made by Lacy but I think I may try to print this one too. Advent blessings to you!
