Virgin and Child

The Virgin Mary's image often features a symbol hinting at her son's impending suffering. A heavy mantle draped over her front creates swag-like folds, while in her right hand she cradles the naked Christ-Child. Both figures sport a heart-shaped hole at their centre, signifying purity, love, comfort and peace. This design also represents the close bond between mother and child, emphasizing unity and their loving relationship.
