Appearing in the 13th century to Carmelite brother Saint Simon Stock, Our Lady held out the scapular and promised her special aid for the salvation of all who wore it. One of the most popular subjects amongst Virgin Mary icons, this icon of Our Lady of Mt. Carmel portrays the perfect embodiment of contemplation and virtue. Our Lady was chosen as the patroness of the Carmelite Order.
