Editorial Review:
A glorious, over-sized deluxe volume of more than 200 original photos of 70 Marian Shrines throughout Europe. Renowned Catholic photographer Janusz Rosikon (TIME, Newsweek, etc.) spent five years making pilgrimages to these sanctuaries, and he captures the devout faith and warm sincerity of pilgrims, as well as the unique and transcendent splendor of the beauty of each Marian shrine. Completely unique in its beauty, size, original photos and inspiring text, this gorgeous volume is a wonderful tribute to the Blessed Virgin Mary, and the great love that her children have for her.

The Madonnas of Europe: Pilgrimages to the Great Marian Shrines Reviews:
Wonderful Book, The Best I Own!! 5 Star Review
2002-09-14 - This large picture/coffee table book is a treasure for all ages. This book has pictures of the gorgeous Marian shrines throughout Europe and each section describes the statues, when, where, and how they were made. Imagine Mary statues with real diamonds for tears, some made from wood, others have fine gold threads for garments, others still are ordained in gold, silver,diamonds and other precoius metals and gems. But what really made me buy this book was the pictures of the Black Madonna shrines. I am African-American and all my life I went to Catholic church and I saw Caucasian Mary statues. In Europe, of all places, there are MANY shrines that have Mary statues that are black. I won't go into the history of the Black Madonna, seeing as how many Catholics will not believe me anyway, but the Black Madonna statues far surpass the Caucasian representation by centuries!! I am glad to see that this book has many pictures of these gorgeous statues. This book is gorgeous and a treasure for Catholics and non-Catholics alike. Definetely woth the money.
