About this item: Highly revered and beloved by the Mexican people, the Virgin of Guadalupe inspires Ana Maria Gonzalez to create a collection of decoupage crosses in her honor. In 1999, Pope John Paul II named Our Lady of Guadalupe patron saint of the Americas, and she is celebrated on December 12. Her well-known image miraculously appeared on the Saint Juan Diego's robe, where he was carrying Castilian roses as proof of her appearance to him. Guadalupe sent him to the Spanish bishop to convince him to a build a church in her honor. For this cross, Gonzalez selects the banner that proclaims her as Reina de Mexico y Emperatriz de las Americas, (Queen of Mexico and Empress of the Americas). - Color(s) may vary slightly - Size may vary slightly About our Artist: Mexico's Ana Maria Gonzalez says, 'For as long as I can remember, I've been around arts and crafts. My whole family produced something and when we'd visit our relatives, my cousins and I would make something for fun. After I married, my husband and I created various kinds of handicrafts, but I felt a need to make something. I began making decorative boxes, painted by hand with different finishes. Today I create boxes with antique motifs.'
