{"product_id":"9781316290040","title":"A Printed Icon in Early Modern Italy: Forlì's Madonna of the Fire","description":"In 1428, a devastating fire destroyed a schoolhouse in the northern Italian city of Forlì, leaving only a woodcut of the Madonna and Child that had been tacked to the classroom wall. The people of Forlì carried that print - now known as the Madonna of the Fire - into their cathedral, where two centuries later a new chapel was built to enshrine it. In this book, Lisa Pon considers a cascade of moments in the Madonna of the Fire's cultural biography: when ink was impressed onto paper at a now-unknown date; when that sheet was recognized by Forlì's people as miraculous; when it was enshrined in various tabernacles and chapels in the cathedral; when it or one of its copies was - and still is - carried in procession. In doing so, Pon offers an experiment in art historical inquiry that spans more than three centuries of making, remaking, and renewal.","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47130994409712,"sku":"9781316290040","price":82.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781316290040_p0.jpg?v=1763706811","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781316290040","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
