As this weeks photo challenge calls for something rare I am reposting my photos of The Veiled Virgin. I couldn’t believe that her veil is made of thin marble. She is so beautiful. If you ever get the opportunity to visit St Johns Newfoundland, Canada, go out of your way to immerse yourself in her presence. It is a rare and memorable experience that will leave you smiling.

Wow, that is an amazing carving, thank you for sharing this….
Yes this is rare indeed, to think that the veil is made from marble that is unique because from far it looks a real veil. Thank you for sharing it, I may not be able to visit Canada your post has given me the opportunity to see it.
That is the fun part of blogging we get to see things we would otherwise not know about or ever see.
I am aware of thinning hair that unveiled my face but the thin marble is certainly a rarity
Beautiful sculpture!
Wow, that is beautiful.
Thank you it is the most exquisite thing I have ever seen.
