Does anyone know where I can purchase a sculpture of the Madonna nursing baby Jesus? I saw one once in a monastery and want to give it to my mother for Christmas. I see painting and medals but no sculptures. It seems to be difficult to find. I have called a major distributor of old church wares that I thought would have one but they didn’t. I’m thinking perhaps in Latin America somewhere but I’m not aware of any distributors from whom I could buy one. Does anyone have any leads or such a sculpture for sale. It would be treasured in my family for generations.
 
Have you searched using “virgen” and “la leche” instead? The La Leche League used to have statues like that, and I think there is a nice one in St. Augustine FL.

I used image search on Bing and found at least three for sale. “Nursing madonna” works too.

Do you have safe search turned on? Maybe it is blocking art?

There are a lot of metals and prayer cards on Etsy. A few statues as well. There is also this Rosary:
