Enjoyed this article! If I can give you a piece of constructive feedback, you refer at one point to Mary as a “divine being” which could be misunderstood. God bless!

Thank you!

My intent was to speak from the perspective of aesthetics rather than theology, so "divine" here is more of how artists depict saints and angels, and in particular the **blessed** virgin :)

Kahlil, this is quite uncanny. My next book is going to be about the Black Madonna. This is a treasure trove of images and ideas. We really have cross-fertilization in our work!!!

Oh wow. Now I’m even more excited for our next conversation. I was surprised how studies on Marian imagery and devotion were so sparse!
