Margaret and Kenneth on Getting the Madonna and Child Statue

Margaret and Kenneth on Getting the Madonna and Child Statue

Morigi, Roger, 1907-1995 Palumbo, Vincent, 1936-

Kenneth and Margaret recount the story of the Madonna and child statue. They wanted the statue to be quite elaborate, and through some trouble and climbing found a man to do the job. The statue was to be of high quality marble, and the sculptor showed off a bit in his knowledge to assure the Landon's he knew what he was doing.
