This is a Virgin and Child. Resin and hand painted. The one that overlooks the Basilica of Our Lady of the Garde. The Good Mother, as the Marseillais affectionately call her. Entirely adorned with gold and dominating the Phocean city, it has become its symbol over the centuries. Mystical and familiar beauty, it protects the people of Marseille and is the object of great devotion among sailors and fishermen. By bringing the Good Mother into your home, she will be a pledge of protection for the home and its inhabitants.
