Virgo Venerada
Virgo Veneranda
Virgin Most Venerable
The figure of Mary, holding a lily in her hand, is encapsulated in a medallion inscribed, "Venerable and Saint" (Numbers 28). Above and to her right, her risen Son is sitting on a throne, pointing with a gesture of invitation to a second throne, next to this own, reserved for his mother.
The medallion rests on the replica of the house of Loreto, itself placed on a rock. At the foot of the rock a group of devotees is standing or kneeling in prayer. This group is seemingly contrasted with another group of people threatened by the snake (devil) hiding in a tree. The central figure, with his back to the onlooker, seems to petition Mary's help in the combat against evil.
"All generations will call me blessed" (Luke, 1:48).
