Image of the Virgin Mary at age 24



There are two legitimate miraculous images of the virgin Mary that I know: the “Virgen de Guadalupe” and the “Virgen de las Lajas”; neither image has been painted with brushes by human hands. Looking at the images, one can clearly see the same person. The images have been made in different styles and represent the Virgin at different ages. We have in the “Virgen de Guadalupe”, a representation of Mary at age fifteen, just before she gave birth to Jesus. In the “Virgen de las Lajas” image, we have the Virgin as a fully grown adult; I venture to say that she looks thirty-three, since according to tradition she never looked older beyond that age. I submit to you a picture obtained by morphing both miraculous images to obtain an image of the Virgin Mary at an age between 33 and 15 which is 24. This picture of the Virgin Mary at age 24 was not made by human hands either, since it was generated by a computer. The imperfections that you see on the image are inherited from the source images; mainly, the “Virgen de las Lajas” image which is on a flat rock called a laja in Spanish. Here is a link to more information about the "Virgen de las Lajas": LINK TO INFO
