The Virgin Mary gained the title Our Lady of Guadalupe after her miraculous appearance in Mexico City in 1531. This santo (image of a holy figure) emulates a venerated image of her apparition that remains enshrined in the city. The original image referred to the "woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and a crown of 12 stars" described in the biblical book of Revelation. The panel of this santo seems to be from the 18th century, with overpainting done in the 19th century to refresh the initial portrait after years of devotional use in a home or a church.
