Around this statue there are depicted 15 mysteries of the Holy Rosary - the Joyful Mysteries: the Annuncation, the Visitation (to Her cousin, St Elizabeth), the Nativity, the Presentation (of the Child Jesus in the Temple) and the Finding (of the lost Child Jesus) in the Temple; the Sorrowful Mysteries: the Agony in the Garden of Getsemane, the Scourging at the Pillar, the Crowning with Thorns, the Carrying of the Cross and finally the Crucifixion and Death of Christ; The Glorious Mysteries: the Rising from the death, the Ascension into Heaven, the Receipt of the Holy Spirit, the Assumption, and the Coronation of the Blessed Virgin Mary as Queen of Heaven and Earth. Below the statue of the Immaculate Conception, there is a banner indicating the years of the first centenary - 1858 and 1958 and at the very bottom of the postcard, one finds a photo of the Basilica and its surroundings in Lourdes dedicated to the Immaculate Conception.
