Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

This years cover on the Emmanuel Books catalog is a picture of St. Anne with the Blessed Virgin as a child. What other great masterpieces are there that depict St. Anne with Mary as a child?

Thanks, ~hsmom~

The Education of the Virgin, where the child Mary is seen taught by Saint Anne, is a popular motif:

Jouvenet's
Maulbertsch's
Rubens'
Lagrenee's
Tiepolo's

Georges de la Tour's Education of the Virgin hangs on our schoolroom wall, directly across from where I usually sit.

Peace,
