Anyone know the name and location of the statue of our Blessed Mother on the Catholicism video on the Blessed Mother?
Hi all!
I have had the pleasure of viewing the Catholicism series several times now, and continue to be enthralled.
And an image that is particularly enthralling is a very quick image I see in the promo trailer, and also at the end of the episode on our Blessed Mother...it is of a statue of our Blessed Mother holding the infant Jesus, and she is smiling beautifully as he tickles her chin...I cannot find out anything about this statue! Does anyone know what it is called or where it is located? Thanks so much!

Hello!
That statue is known as the "Virgen Blanca" and is located at the Cathedral of Saint Mary of Toledo in Toledo, Spain.
Here is a link that might have some more information:

WOW, thank you SO much! It has been baffling my whole family...though we continue to view those little snippets of the film just to look at that beautiful image of our Blessed Mother!
Thanks for taking the time to chime in.
Trusting in God's Loving Providence,
Mary

Not a problem! So glad you are enjoying the series! -- We love that statue, too. Isn't it so compelling and beautiful?
