Mary, The Fleur-de-Lis, and the Holy Trinity
In this plaque Mary is depicted holding the Christ Child on her left side and grasping with her right hand a scepter surmounted with a fleur-de-lis. Until around 1300, the fleur-de-Lis was depicted usually only in association with Jesus. As time passed, the fleur-de-Lis became exclusively associated with Mary who was seen increasingly as the “lily among thorns” in Song of Songs 2:2. As the lily was a natural symbol of purity and chastity, the fleur-de-lis was used more and more as an iconographic attribute of the Virgin Mary. The three petals of the fleur-de-lis were interpreted as a symbol of the Holy Trinity. The band binding the three petals together came to been seen as a symbol of Mary, since the Trinity simply cannot be understood without Mary, the mother of the incarnated Second Person of the Trinity, Jesus Christ.
