Description
The symbols for the Immaculate Conception date back to the Baroque period and are taken from the Woman of the Apocalypse in Revelation 12: “A great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet and a crown of twelve stars on her head.”
The constellations in the background accurately reflect the night sky and carry significance.

I like your version of the Blessed Virgin Mary very much. I take it that you are Catholic. I am too. Have you ever heard this saying in Latin: "Ipsa Conteret Caput Tuum"? It means "She shall crush thy head." It means, of course, Mary giving birth to Jesus, to conquer death and sin, brought into the world by satan. Again,nice concept by you.
