(Gallery Has Three Pictures)
This is the chapel dedicated to the Virgin Mary, who is the Mother of Jesus. The two panels depict times from the life of Mary, as do the stained-glass windows.
This close up of the statue of the Virgin Mary and the two panels show greater detail. The panel on the left shows the remarkable story of Saints Joseph and Mary presenting their son Jesus at the temple, for the redemption of their first born son. The panel on the right shows the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit crowning the Virgin Mary with the crown of honor of being the Mother of Jesus.
This statue of the Virgin Mary is located in a corner of the chapel facing the chapel altar, and shows her being venerated by a two children.
