This
sweet statue of Our Lady of the Smile is made of white alabaster
and measures approximately 8.5" tall.
It is a rendition of a statue that is part of the life story of
Saint Therese of Lisieux, the Little Flower. When St. Therese
was young she became very ill and was expected to die. As the
family prayed at her bedside, Therese had the experience of the
statue of Mary smiling radiantly at her and she was immediately
healed.
This image of Mary became known as Our Lady (or Virgin) of the
Smile.
