Mary Totem

People think of the East Village as a place dominated by pagans, and that's probably true, but the Cult of Mary is strong here also, as you can see by this statue taped to a tree on East 5th Street:


Mary totem.

It looks like a voodoo shrine, with its mixture of Christian statues and tree branches.

I wonder if their wish was granted?!
