Our Lady of the Rosegarden (Christian theme)

Note: Theme of the Madonna, usually portrayed with the Christ Child, in a rose garden or with a rose bush; the theme has many facets, as Mary is associated with the red rose that is symbolic of love, and the white rose symbolic of purity; Coelius Sedulius referred to Mary as a "rose among thorns," and the rose is the “queen of flowers."
