''Hail Mary!'' is an oil painting created circa 1891 by Marianne Preindelsberger Stokes, an Austrian-born British artist known for her contributions to the Newlyn School of painters. The painting is a devotional piece that reflects the influence of Pre-Raphaelitism and the Arts and Crafts movement, both of which were prominent during the late 19th century and emphasized a return to fine craftsmanship and detail inspired by medieval art.

The artwork depicts a young girl in a moment of prayer, her hands clasped and eyes raised heavenward, embodying the purity and piety associated with the Virgin Mary. The title, "Hail Mary," refers to the traditional Catholic prayer, the Ave Maria, which is a plea for intercession from the Mother of Jesus. Stokes's use of symbolism, meticulous attention to detail, and the spiritual aura that pervades the scene are characteristic of her style, which often merged religious themes with everyday life.

Marianne Stokes, née Preindelsberger, was married to fellow painter Adrian Scott Stokes, and together they traveled extensively, drawing inspiration from various cultures and artistic traditions. Marianne's work, including "Hail Mary!," was well-received in her time, and she exhibited at prestigious venues such as the Royal Academy in London. The painting is a testament to her skill in capturing the essence of her subjects and her ability to convey deep religious sentiment through her art.

"Hail Mary!" is a significant work within Stokes's oeuvre, showcasing her technical proficiency and her capacity to evoke emotional depth. It stands as an example of the cross-cultural and stylistic exchanges that were a hallmark of the fin de siècle art world, and it remains an important piece for the study of women artists in the Victorian era.
