Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book recounts the story of Forlà , an Italian city, and its reverence for the miraculous painting of the Virgin Mary known as the Vergine del Fuoco, or the Virgin of the Fire. Beginning with the painting's discovery in 1428, the author traces its rise as a symbol of the city, with chapters dedicated to the patron saints of Forlà and the construction of a chapel to house the work. The text puts these events in the context of both the history of Forlà and the broader religious climate of the time, providing a fascinating glimpse into the lives of medieval and Renaissance Italians. Ultimately, this book is not merely a history of a painting but an exploration of the ways in which people have turned to art for hope, comfort, and solace in times of trouble.
