It has been reported recently people are finding so called images of this person everywhere. From a knot in some wood to chocolate. If no one has every seen her how can they say it's her? Like photo's of Jesus. It 's not possible to know what he looked/lookes like. It's scary so many people are so, well, you fill in the blank.

lol. i have wondered this for many years. Not that I believe in it, I just wonder how it is justified. Also think about this, what age did she live to, and what age do these images show? They dont often display an old woman, nor a 2 yr old Mary. the gospel show her alive and well when jesus was supposed to be 33 years of age. That puts her up around the 47 year old mark. Probably lived many years after that. Jesus could have been crucified at the age of 45! that puts her age up at 60 !. they dont show an old Mary with missing teeth.
lol
Good observation!!

Nobody has any idea although its 100% certain she looked nothing like the iconic figures that have been handed down to us since the Middle Ages. Chances are she was short, dark-skinned like everyone in that area and had a broad, flatter face. The images handed down are just some artist's conception of an idealized figure. And when people say they've had a vision of her, they're probably hallucinating.

No one knows exactly what she looks like ... Great peintures made HER picture after some personalities like for instance Lucretia Borgia who was far from being a Mary Virgin... So icons don't speak much truth.

It is in the imagination of people that they have seen the "Virgin Mary". She died over two thousand years ago.

She looks just like the ancient Egyptian statues of the Goddess Isis holding her son in her arms

Although, I'm as sure as I can possibly be that Mary will be in Heaven, these visions are not her. These are demonic apparitions setting up the world to be deceived by the antichrist and false prophet.

I agree completely. Although there is a romour that there is a portrait of Christ, for which he posed, named the Qarata Razoo. I have never been able to locate it though.

They don't and I don't believe in the appearances either.Mary was like you and I and can not pray for sinners or mediate for us like Jesus can.
