The Marian Crest
This is one of a number of extra posts I expect to send out this month, possibly in July as well, covering new sacred artworks for the Stella Maris shop, new artworks for novels, and perhaps a few other subjects! - Stella
I recently completed this image for the Stella Maris Shop, and I think it fits better on the products than any of the other designs so far! Depicting the Marian Cross recognizable from the Miraculous Medal, it’s wreathed with a garland of roses, long loved as a symbol of Our Lady, and frequently utilized by her in apparitions.
Also known as the Marian Cross, it serves as one of Our Lady’s crests and insignia, reminding us not only of her place at the foot of the Cross, but that Christ took His human form from her in the Incarnation; and that she ever directs our hearts to Him.

A reminder, please avoid downloading or taking screenshots of Stella Maris artwork, as such images could be uploaded by individuals to make their own products, and won’t support my work. Thank you!
