Marian Minis - Our Lady, Star of the Sea

This is a reproduction print of an original watercolor of Our Lady, Star of the Sea, also known as Stella Maris, from the Marian Minis collection. The collection was created as part of an art challenge to honor the Blessed Virgin Mary in the month of May. Marian Minis are only available in 5"x7" prints.

Frame not included.

The name Star of the Sea likely comes from St. Jerome, but I love this interpretation from St. Bernard of Clairvaux: "If the winds of temptation arise; If you are driven upon the rocks of tribulation look to the star, call on Mary; If you are tossed upon the waves of pride, of ambition, of envy, of rivalry, look to the star, call on Mary. Should anger, or avarice, or fleshly desire violently assail the frail vessel of your soul, look at the star, call upon Mary.”
