The Mystery and Magnificence of Mary in Paintings & Poems

This book celebrates the spiritual mysteries and magnificence of Mary and her mission. She has inspired humanity for more than two thousand years and will continue to do so long into the future.

Over several weeks, the author received a series of poems that focus on Mary and reflect each of the mysteries surrounding her life on earth. A few months later, the idea evolved to use these poems as introductions to each of the mysteries, illustrated by great works of art.

The selected artworks portray turning points in Mary’s life, from Immaculate Conception and Annunciation to more modern apparitions of her being. The artists’ works represent epiphanies that invite us to behold and partake inwardly in each mystery.
