Assumption of the Virgin, Beautiful Antique Folk Art Retablo on Tin Weller jardiere There are a couple ofI believe it is the Assumption of the Virgin represented here, Mary ascending to Heaven, flanked by angels. And what a beatific Mary she is! With a wonderful halo of white star like flowers arching above her, and fantastic billowing blue drapery, wrapping her like a swirl of sea.
