I have seen representations of The Christ in the Orient that were Asian, Black in predominately Black churches and Nordic in many Protestant churches. It doesn’t even matter that the Virgin of Guadalupe is apparently Mexican.

Mary has appeared to the faithful in many parts of the world and she appears in a likeness for assurance of those who see her. Mary of La Vang, the apparitions in Viet Nam were of a woman who would be familiar in appearance to the people who saw her and is dressed familiarly ->http://www.marypages.com/LaVang.htm
