Our Lady of Sorrows, 1943, by #MaríaIzquierdo (Mexican, 1902-1955). Private collection; source, www.artsy.net/artwork/mari... #OurLadyOfSorrows #FeastOfOurLadyOfSorrows #artherstory #womenartists

A bust-length painting of the Virgin Mary behind a display of religious offerings. Mary is centered between two pink curtains that loop over to the left and right edge of the artwork, respectively. She has brown skin and a gold halo; she wears a red dress and blue head covering. Her hands are clasped before her as she raises her eyes heavenward. The 2-level blue-draped ledge in front of her is filled with various objects, including glass half-filled with red liquid; green wheat sprouts in ceramic pots, seasonal fruits (including watermelon and oranges); cut flowers; two unlit but previously used candles, lying flat; paper flags; and devotional statuettes. The artist's signature appears in the bottom left corner of the painting.
