According to legend, on December 8, 1531, the Virgin Mary appeared to the newly Christianized Juan Diego on the Mexican hill of Tepeyacac. As proof of her divine visit, she miraculously imprinted her image, known as Our Lady of Guadalupe. This volume provides the study of Our Lady of Guadalupe. It places the work within the context of art history.
