Description

Lady of Guadalupe statue fully painted on the front side but is only neatly painted to a certain extent. Colors include: green, red, gold, black, white, blue, peach, and maroon. Seems to be made of a ceramic-like material and is hollow with a hole at the bottom. Lady of Guadalupe takes up most of the statue but does include a child at its base. Throughout the statue the paint is slightly smudged and has some fingerprints on its back along with some excess material. Rigid sides and flat base.
