Our Lady of Sorrows (Latin: ''Beata Maria Virgo Perdolens''), the Sorrowful Mother or Mother of Sorrows (Latin: ''Mater Dolorosa''), and Our Lady of Piety, Our Lady of the Seven Sorrows or Our Lady of the Seven Dolours are names by which the Blessed Virgin Mary is referred to in relation to sorrows in her life. As ''Mater Dolorosa'', it is also a key subject for Marian art in the Catholic Church. The Seven Sorrows of Mary are a popular Roman Catholic devotion. In common religious Catholic imagery, the Blessed Virgin Mary is portrayed in a sorrowful and lacrimating affect, with seven daggers piercing her heart, often bleeding. Devotional prayers that consist of meditation began to elaborate on her Seven Sorrows based on the prophecy of the Rabbi Simeon. Common examples of piety under this title are Servite rosary, or the Chaplet of the Seven Sorrows of Our Lady and the Seven Joys of Mary and more recently, "Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart of Mary". The feast of Our Lady of Sorrows is liturgically celebrated each 15 of September, while a feast of Friday of Sorrows is observed in the Extraordinary Form Calendar of the Roman Rite of the Church. == Seven Sorrows == The Seven Sorrows (or ''Dolors'') are events in the life of the Blessed Virgin Mary that are a popular devotion and are frequently depicted in art.
