This is the image of Our Lady of Santa Maria Impruneta seen weeping in Guid'Antonio's family church in "The Sign of the Weeping Virgin." In bygone years, the painting was taken to Florence on special occasions. Her home was (and remains) the Cathedral of Santa Maria all'Impruneta in the town of Impruneta, a short distance south of Florence near the Chianti Valley of Greve in Tuscany.

"1480. 25th March. Peace was proclaimed, and the image of Our Lady of Santa Maria Impruneta was brought to Florence for the fete." Luca Landucci ~ "A Florentine Diary from 1450 to 1516" |
