This hollow wooden statue depicting the Virgin Mary with Child on top of a crescent moon is situated on an octagonal base. Imagery of the Virgin Mary atop a crescent moon reflects the vision of St. John (Apocalypse 12:1): “a woman clothed in the sun, and the moon was under her feet.” Additionally, the statue features Christ holding an orb symbolic of his role as spiritual ruler of the world, while the grapes in his mother’s hand symbolize the wine of the Mass. This small statue would make a lovely addition to any home altar or prayer space.
