La Virgen de la Soledad

Wood, gesso, paint; carved hair, painted eyes; fabric clothing. Approximately 5½ feet tall (168 cm.).
Cuilapan, Oaxaca, Mexico

The Virgin is shown wearing black and silver clothing and a crown with a cross on top. Her face is long and pale.

The work appears to be of recent manufacture. The hands are even less detailed than is the norm for representations of Mary in Oaxaca.
