This Alejandro Chavez work depicts a loving Virgin Mary, posing with her son, Jesus and surrounded by flowers and a halo of light rays emanating from her head. This diarama (a “retablo”) is in a colorfully painted wooden chest. Chavez created the figures in ceramic plastic and hand paints each one. The Painted wood retablo, ‘Virgin Mary’ sells for $29.95.
