The Madonna of the Fire (late 14th or early 15th century)

Our Lady of the Fire (Italian: Madonna del Fuoco) is an early 15th century image of the Madonna and Child, venerated by Roman Catholics in Forlì and considered by them to be the protector of salt workers since the 17th century.[1]

This early Italian devotional print was displayed in a school in Forli, survived the 1428 fire that destroyed the school, and was subsequently venerated and moved to the city's cathedral, Santa Croce. The print is a hand-coloured woodcut. It depicts annunciation and crucifixion scenes, as well as various saints.

In memory of the fire, one or more candles are displayed from the windows of the houses of Forlì and left to burn down during the night on 4 and 5 February.[2]
