ARTWORK NARRATIVE:
“Blessed are you, O Mary, daughter of the poor, who became mother of the Lord of kings. In your womb He has dwelt in whose praise the heavens are full. Blessed be your own breast, which has nourished Him with love, your mouth which has lulled Him, and your arms which have held Him. You have become a vehicle to bear a God of fire!”
(Syriac Marian hymn)
