After the attempt on his life, May 13, 1981, Pope St. John Paul II wished to place a mosaic of the Virgin Mary in place of a window of the Apostolic Palace. That mosaic was inspired by the ancient and venerated painting of the Madonna of the Column, as a pledge of Our Lady's motherly protection of the pope and the whole Church. Framed in an ornate gold wood frame under glass; measures 13½" x 11½". $49.00 |
