The Our Lady Of Snow magnet is a 3.5 inch x 2.5 inch print from the original work of Samuel Shelton. The copyright watermarks will be removed on your product. Our Lady of the Snows refers to a longstanding Marian devotion tied to the Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore in Rome. The title commemorates an early tradition that a miraculous summer snowfall indicated where to build a church honoring Mary; the basilica became one of the major Marian churches and the devotion developed into an annual feast (August 5) marked by liturgy and a symbolic sprinkling of white petals on the basilica’s nave. The devotion emphasizes Mary’s heavenly purity and the Church’s reverence for her role in salvation history.
