Shrines dedicated to Notre Dame (Our Lady) on secular buildings are common in France. This one on the corner of a building on Cour Mirabeau in Aix caught my eye this afternoon because it was larger than usual and more artfully sculpted than most. Also Mary is often depicted holding her son but in this case I don't know what she's doing.
