Sculpture in Different Mediums 08-03

The garden at St. Mary Immaculate Church on Yonge Street is home to this shrine featuring a 200 year old Carrera white marble Madonna. The 4' (1.2m) foundation is decorated with tri-colour inlaid stones and the octagon kneeler is clad with a pleasant coloured granite. The contrasting granite pedestal is produced in a conical shape to receive a pyramid glass enclosure made from 1/2" (12mm) reflecting tempered safety glass with door and lock. On the perimeter (not shown) are two semi-round granite benches on which to sit. This work is very much admired and visited.
