Does anyone have pic of Our Lady of Pity?

    • There is a prayer for Our Lady of Pity for which I need a picture as an accompanyment.  There are precious few images of her, and they are not all the same - I don't know which is the "real" Our Lady of Pity.  There must be a real devotion to her as there is a prayer to her in the Racolta - somewhere there is the statue or painting, or "official image" to go with it?!  Thank you all for any help with this.

    This link shows the following image:

    .
    The 7 pictures surrounding her are the 7 Sorrows of Our Lady:
    .
    Prophesy of Simeon
    Flight into Egypt
    Finding in the Temple (Jesus had been lost for 3 days)
    Carrying of the Cross (esp. the 4th Station)
    Crucifixion of Our Lord
    Taking Him down from the cross
    Burial of Our Lord in the tomb
    .
    All considered, it would seem it is our pity that is evoked for compassionating her in her tremendous sorrows, but by so doing we accept her compassion for us in our own particular sorrows, since one who knows suffering in charity desires to give comfort to others who suffer.
