Nuestra Señora de los Dolores (Our Lady of Sorrows) is based on a Gospel verse in which Mary learns that her son would die for the sins of mankind. When she presents the infant Jesus in the temple, she is told, ​“And thy own soul a sword shall pierce, that out of many hearts thought may be revealed” (Luke 2:34–35). The fluid lines of the Virgin’s robe lead the worshiper’s eyes to her hands clasped in prayer.
