Photo Of The Day: Santa Rosalia

The 18th Avenue Feast may be over, but Santa Rosalia lives on in this incredible artwork submitted by local artist Virginia Palyka. She included this message:

[Santa Rosalia] is shown as she looks in the shrine at the festival, but with missing relics included – I’ve been told she sometimes appears in the shrine with some bones. She may also appear with a book, skull, or lilies.
