Mater
Dolorosa
(Sorrowful
Mother or
Our Lady Of Sorrows)
This retablo of the mourning mother is among the most important of the representations of Mary without Christ. Usually she appears in a grieving attitude with her head covered and tears in her eyes. There is always at least one dagger in her breast; occasionally, there are seven daggers. This is in reference to the scripture Luke 2:35 in which Mary is told that a sword will pierce her soul. Mater Dolorosa is invoked against worry, sorrow and pain - and at the hour of death.
