Summary:
A full-length figure of Mary wearing robes and a long veil. She stands in sandaled feet on a bank of clouds, her palms pressed together in prayer. A tasseled rope hangs from around her neck to below her waist, and a large rosary hangs to the mid-shin. The veil is detailed with an intricate pattern along the edges. The sculpture has a short, square base and is mounted upon a limestone base with steps and depressions for plantings.
