Photo taken in Yankalilla shrine shows Our Lady seated in a pew

 

 

 

In another photo taken in the church several years earlier shows Our Lady seated 'kitty cornered' in the pew. Why is she seated that way? Was it because she couldn't bear to look at her Son in the presentation of the old redgum crucifix which was then hanging above the altar? In fact she appears to be looking toward a smaller wall crucifix close to the lectern.
