Pequeño altar adosado al muro de la mezquita catedral

Cuadro de representación de la virgen con acceso por escaleras.

La Virgen de los Faroles es una representación de la Virgen María. Se trata de un cuadro pintado por Julio Romero de Torres, que hizo una representación algo diferente de los cánones de las imágenes de la Virgen: se trata de una mujer de tez más morena y con la cintura marcada, más sensual de lo habitual. La observación del cuadro, situado en la fachada norte de los muros de la catedral, en un altar al que no se tiene acceso, por estar cerrado con rejas, se dificulta porque tiene un cristal que lo protege. Este cristal, dependiendo de la hora del día, refleja la luz y dificulta la observación. Los mejores momentos para ver la imagen es a media tarde. Por cierto, el nombre de Vurgen de los Faroles viene de los faroles que rodean el altar.
