Notre Dame du Bon Succès

Notre Dame du Bon Succès is a wooden statue of the Madonna and Child in the Church of Our Lady of Finistère in central Brussels, Belgium. Copies of this statue are known as Our Lady of Aberdeen in Scotland. The statue came to Brussels in 1625. It is believed that it was sent from Aberdeen to Dunkirk by William Laing, the Procurer for the King of Spain. Its history before 1625 is based on uncertain records, but after that date, its story is well documented.

The statue is made from oak and walnut. There is evidence of repairs from X-ray computed tomography (CT) scanning. Copies of it were made in 1895 for St. Mary's Cathedral and the Convent of the Sacred Heart at Queen's Cross, both in Aberdeen. It is believed that the Brussels statue came from a chapel at the north end of Abderdeen's Bridge of Dee, which was built between 1527 and 1530. Many myths and miracles have been associated with Notre Dame du Bon Succès.
