Votive offering dedicated to the Virgin of Talpa is a 1934 oil by Unknown, a Byzantine icon painting work, held at Frida Kahlo Museum.
The painting depicts a small room with blue walls and a wooden ceiling. A green bed is positioned against the wall, with a figure lying on it, covered in a white sheet with red stains. Next to the bed, a man in a brown jacket and hat is leaning over the figure. On the left side of the room, a large painting of the Virgin Mary is visible, while a small yellow-framed picture hangs on the right wall. In the foreground, a copper plaque bears an inscription in Spanish, which appears to be a dedication to the Virgin of Talpa.
