Het wonder in de Santa Maria in Via 1591

Antonio Tempesta's 1591 etching, *Het wonder in de Santa Maria in Via*, depicts a religious procession. The image shows a group of men carrying a framed icon of the Virgin Mary and Child. In the background, figures kneel before a large altar, likely representing the original miracle that the procession commemorates. The inscription at the bottom, "Putei S. Marie in Via celebris memoria Inno: cento III Pont. Max.", suggests the scene is a depiction of a popular miracle connected to the Santa Maria in Via church in Rome, likely one attributed to Pope Innocent III. This small but detailed etching highlights the importance of religious events and devotion in 16th-century Italy.
