Description

I love the regal beauty of Pinturicchio’s (aka Bernardino di Betto) madonna. The black veil symbolizes her sorrow during the Passion, the red dress the Passion itself. The delicate gold trim and almost invisible sheer veil make Mary look like a queen.

Pinturicchio (meaning “little painter”) got his nickname for being short. He lived from 1454 to 1513 and painted a large breadth of works for the Church all throughout Italy during the Renaissance, many of which still survive to this day.

Your Impact

For every order, 10% of all proceeds will go to organizations who provide resources to at risk women before and after birth.

The first is The Pregnancy Care Center of Rockford. They area a local organization to me,  providing resources and care for free to women in crisis pregnancies, from ultrasounds to parenting classes to post abortion healing.

The second is the Sisters of Life, a newer religious community founded in 1991 in New York to promote the dignity of every human life. They have houses for women to come live with them during and after their pregnancy as they get back on their feet, as well as counseling for post abortion healing, and other missions.
