Summary/Abstract: The Roman Catholic Church acknowledges that “the objects of folk religiosity help believers contemplate the mysteries of the Christian faith”. In these milieus, the Cult of the Virgin Mary is of paramount importance. The primary function of the representation of the Virgin Mary is not to provide an aesthetic experience but to familiarize people with Her mystery.
