by Sister Maresa Lilley, SND

Mary, Mother of Sorrows

10 x 8″ oil paint on canvas panel

This was a special request from a customer to paint the Sorrowful Mother from a small public domain image. Traditionally, the Church contemplates Seven Sorrows that would, according to the prophet Simeon, pierce her heart. Luke 2:35

1 – The prophecy of Simeon

2 – The flight into Egypt

3 – The losing of the Holy Child at Jerusalem

4 – The meeting with Jesus on His way to Calvary

5 – Standing at the foot of the Cross

6 – Our Lord being taken from the Cross

7 – The burial of Christ
