Ex-votos are objects or inscriptions offered in thanksgiving to God, the Virgin Mary or a saint, as a sign of gratitude for a grace received or a vow fulfilled. The term comes from the Latin ex voto suscepto, which means ‘following a vow made’. The ex-voto is a gesture of personal and public faith. It expresses the believer's gratitude, recalls the power of divine intercession, and bears witness to the living links between heaven and earth.
