To honor the patroness of St. Ann's, Turtle Lake, artist Jeff Hile, painted a mural of St. Ann, St. Mary and Jesus in the apse behind the sanctuary of the church. For the form of the trio, Hile borrowed from images such as “The Virgin of the Lilies,” by 19th Cent. French painter, William-Adolphe Bouguereau, and a Byzantine-style mosaic of St. Mary in Cathedral of Christ the King, Superior.Sup Cath Herald
Notice anything wrong with the photo? Yeah, that's the priest's chair elevated in place of the tabernacle. Need I say more? I like the mural, now it would be great to finish the job and fix the rest of the sanctuary.
