I really like this wooden statue of Our Lady of Guadeloupe. I do not always like some of the artistic portrayals of this traditional image. I like this one for the following reasons:
1. Individually hand carved rays
2. She is beautifully painted and carved, in particular, her face.
3. the gloss over the paint is not "over the top"
Enjoy!
