About this artwork
A Madonna of compassion and devotion. From Greek / Eastern Christianity: Mother of God. This unique sculpture is the Virgin of Sorrow (Mary at the Altar) from Greek Mythology. Mother of God is from Eastern Christianity. The artist has done an amazing job of assembling this most unique sculptural composition. The artist located the animal bone in the nearby watershed of his neighborhood, the Roanoke River. Much later, the artist found the shell on…
the beaches of the Atlantic Ocean. Using a fit or not-fit method while trying to find objects that fit (work together), success was realized when he assembled these two main objects. Adding altar like elements, the finished sculpture was a huge success. Unique, one of a kind. Small and intimate. Religious and meaningful. Freestanding. Table top art. Great for display. Vergine. Conversation. Life. Peace. Love. Sea Shell / Bone / Swarovski Crystals / Brass / Metal
