The Pieta Icon Plaque By Artist Bouguereau

Prayer to Our Lady of Sorrows:

O Most Holy Virgin, Mother of our Lord Jesus Christ: by the overwhelming grief you experienced when you witnessed the martyrdom, the crucifixion, and the death of your divine Son, look upon me with eyes of compassion and awaken in my heart a tender commiseration for those sufferings, as well as a sincere detestation of my sins, in order that, being disengaged from all undue affections for the passing joys of this earth, I may long for the eternal Jerusalem, and that henceforth all my thoughts and all my actions may be directed toward this one most desirable object.

Honor, glory, and love to our Divine Lord Jesus, and to the Holy and Immaculate Mother of God.

Amen.

The Pietà is a subject in Christian art depicting the Virgin Mary cradling the dead body of Jesus. As such, it is a particular form of the Lamentation of Christ, a scene from the Passion of Christ found in cycles of the Life of Christ. When Christ and the Virgin are surrounded by other figures from the New Testament, the subject is strictly called a Lamentation in English, although Pietà is often used for this as well, and is the normal term in Italian.

Beautiful image of the Pieta Marco by artist Bouguereau on a textured tile surface creates a new way to display this art as home decor. Each finely detailed tile can be hung on the wall or placed on the wire stand included as part of a freestanding vignette. An elegant addition to the decor of any Christian Home or church and a great gift for clergy, birthdays, Christmas, or any special gift-giving occasion!
