This gorgeous medal depicts the three Marys at the foot of the cross (Mary Magdalene, Mary Jacobi & Mary Salome - the same three who went to the Empty Tomb on Easter morning). Also present is the Blessed Mother and John the beloved. This Crucifixion scene in sterling silver is quite large and measures 28mm wide and 56mm high. It hangs from a long 24 inch Italian sterling silver chain. The words written below the scene are: "Obra de las tres Marias y de los discipules de S. Juan" (translated: "Work of the three Marys and the disciples of Saint John")

The reverse of the medal has the monstrance on the altar as it is during Eucharistic Adoration. The words written below are: "Sagrarios Calvarios" or "Sacred Calvary."

EUCHARISTIC ADORATION is a practice in the Roman Catholic, Anglo-Catholic and some Lutheran traditions, in which the Blessed Sacrament is exposed and adored by the faithful.
