Zaragoza Basílica del Pilar — Baroque Masterpiece Board

Souvenir cutting board featuring the BasГ­lica de Nuestra SeГ±ora del Pilar in Zaragoza — one of the most important Marian shrines in the Catholic world. According to tradition, the Virgin Mary appeared to the Apostle James on a jasper pillar in 40 AD, making this the first church dedicated to Mary in history. The current baroque basilica, with its magnificent 11 domes adorned with frescoes by Goya and 4 corner towers, dominates the banks of the Ebro River. The view from across the river at sunset — 11 domes reflected in the water — is one of Spain’s most iconic images.
