Multifaceted Icon MARIA
after Guido Dettoni della Grazia
The Statue MARIA is an Icon
shaped to be held within hands which see it,
and it becomes a multifaceted Icon when,
by looking at the statue
from different points of view,
moments of Mery’s life
as well as moments of every person’s life:
Kneeling – carrying the pitcher – she is expecting
– with the child- elevation – the dove of Peace
kneeling
carring the pitcher
she is expecting
with the child

the dove of Ppeace
