Beautiful new statues just arrived from Lourdes!

This ”Madonna in Blue with Rosary” statue from Lourdes is one of the latest additions to our line of beautiful Catholic statuary from countries around the world. Created in blue, the traditional marian color, statue measures approximately 6 1/4″ tall, just the right size for desk or dresser. Mary is shown holding a rosary as a reminder to pray as she instructed in her many apparitions, especially at Lourdes and Fatima. We especially like the fact that this statue is “stylized” and has a face without features. This invites one to to go deeper and to consider the Blessed Mother’s many virtues including her simplicity, purity, and tenderness.A companion statue, “Madonna in Blue“, sized at only 5 3/4″ tall, has also just arrived. Once again, the Blessed Mother is shown ”faceless” with head slightly down, and hands joined in prayer. This unique, sweet rendition of the Blessed Virgin would be a wonderful gift for girls and women of all ages and for any occasion.

When the artist, Myriam Duvignau, who is associated with the Museum Gemmail in Lourdes, asked us to represent her work we were delighted because of the quality of her work and also because of its simplicity and spirituality. She is pleased to create works that speak to the many pilgrims of various nationalities ”who come to pray to Our Lady of Lourdes”. Myriam wants to “share the beauty (of Lourdes) with all those who do not have this opportunity to move into this place of sharing and love.”  We are pleased to offer her creations on our Mater Dei Imports website and in our Erie, PA Studio. We trust that you will like them too!
