Who is this woman - and whom is she expecting?

Who are the man and woman in this early 16th century German statue carved from oak? Be careful not to jump to the conclusion that it's Mary and Joseph! But if that's where your imagination led you - it led you to the right family. You're looking at Ann and Joachim, Mary's mother and father.

Now, what have Ann and Joachim to do with the Saint of the Day? That question will be answered and you will be reminded of who is the real subject of the Immaculate Conception if you click on Saint of the Day under LINKS in the sidebar.
