This is a rare and unusual scene of The Virgin Mary with Bernadette Soubirous. This antique print is titled the, "Madonna of Lourdes" in several languages at the bottom of print.

I believe the story goes, that while Bernadette Soubirous was gathering firewood one day she stumbled upon The Rocky Grotto at Lourdes where The Virgin Mary appeared. Mary reveals to Bernadette that she is the Immaculate Conception.
This is a wonderful enchanting picture. This picture was printed on a heavy cardstock-type paper. Above the Rocky Grotto scene is an image of a church in the clouds. On each side is a dove with a ribbon in their mouth holding a religious symbol. This print has bright, vibrant colors with crisp detail. Original gold-painted wood frame with applied decorative shell-shaped metal corners. The frame has minor age-appropriate wear with slight, light scratches throughout. (see photo) Original glass and old wire hanger. Nice original wood backing. This beautiful print is in excellent original condition, except for a small tear on Mary’s hand. The tear is virtually unnoticeable, but should not be dismissed. Overall, this is a captivating and enchanting piece of antique religious art. Circa 1910. |
