Description
A pietà is a subject in Christian art depicting the Virgin Mary cradling the dead body of Jesus, most often found in sculpture. 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.
The Basilica of Notre-Dame-du-Cap is a basilica in Trois-Rivières, Quebec, Canada. It is the Canada's national shrine to the Blessed Virgin Mary and attracts thousands of pilgrims each year. In 1964, the present basilica was inaugurated, and the sanctuary officially became a minor basilica. The Missionary Oblates of Mary Immaculate continue to operate the shrine.
This digitally altered artwork is derived from a photograph taken Sept 18, 2007 in Cap-de-la-Madeleine, Quebec during our exploratory tour of New England, and parts of the east coast of the USA and Canada on the Norwegian Dawn out of New York City.
Final processing done with Smart Photo Editor and Photoshop.
