Our Lady of Mount Carmel | Queen of the Holy Mountain | Mother of the Scapular | Protector of Souls

This breathtaking digital watercolor portrait of Our Lady of Mount Carmel captures her in regal majesty, standing atop Mount Carmel with the Sea of Galilee shimmering in the distance. Clothed in a rich brown Carmelite habit and cream mantle adorned with golden floral embroidery, the Blessed Virgin extends the Brown Scapular as a sign of grace and protection. In her arms, the Christ Child offers a second scapular, His hand raised in blessing.

The artwork radiates maternal tenderness and heavenly authority, with luminous halos etched in Marian and Carmelite symbols. Flowers bloom at her feet—lilies for purity and roses for love—while the mountain and sea stretch behind her, evoking her ancient title and promise.

A reverent and powerful tribute to Mary’s promise of eternal care to all who wear her scapular with devotion.

Our Lady of Mount Carmel is the title given to the Blessed Virgin Mary as patroness of the Carmelite Order, which originated on Mount Carmel in the 12th century. She appeared to St. Simon Stock in 1251, giving him the Brown Scapular and the promise:

“Whosoever dies wearing this scapular shall not suffer eternal fire.”

She is honored on July 16 as the Queen of Carmel and Mother of all who seek refuge under her mantle.
