yet more 'rubbish' !



















I have been on holiday to the Lakedistrict, and while walking around I found a really nice junk / antique shop, and I saw this! it was really quite a good price ( mostly because its falling to bits) ......I am not sure why Mary is holding the baby Jesus up to the girl holding the dove, but whatever the reason, I love it :-)
Ok, afer a little research i have come to the conclusion that this is a memento mori piece, and that someone has lost a daughter and this is to memorialise her....now I love it even more...
