sacrilege


Transgression against virtues of religion. Recently polish pop culture magazine Machina has added to the spate of images that have caused consternation and anger by putting its cover the following image. The face of the woman is well known around the world and the child is her daughter Laurdes. The clothes however belong to another Modonna, "The Black Madonna of Czestochowa" , considered to be the holiest painting in Poland with thousands of pilgrims walking across Poland to reach it every year.
