The Madonna Statue is located in front of the Immaculate Conception Chapel at the end of Marfa Ridge road. It was built in 1870 with an accompanying chapel which, legend has it, was built by a fisherman in thanks for surviving when his boat capsized. The original chapel was at one point in danger of collapsing so a new one was built in 1961. This is an idyllic spot for those searching for some untouched countryside, and is often used for picnics.

Il santuario della Madonna della Corona è situato nel comune di Ferrara di Monte Baldo, non lontano dalla frazione di Spiazzi di Caprino Veronese, in provincia e diocesi di Verona. Incastonato nella roccia, è situato a ridosso di uno strapiombo a quota 775 metri s.l.m. che si affaccia sulla Val d’Adige.
Il termine Corona si presenta come una variante dei termini trentini e lombardi ( crona , corna , croda e dei veneti cornedo, cornuda. ) Cossicché Madonna della Corona significa Madonna della roccia.

Wooden sculpture from the 14th century - described on a(n Italian only) sign next to it as from the school of 'Umbro-Marchigiana', which I would take a guess at means it is made in a style typical of the areas Umbria and Marche at the time. The sculpture was acquired by pope Paul VI (died in 1978) and donated to the church, that is San Giovanni in Laterano, by the current pope, Francis.
The Madonna del Granduca is a Madonna painting by the Italian renaissance artist Raphael. It was probably painted in 1505, shortly after Raphael had arrived in Florence. The influence of Leonardo da Vinci, whose works he got to know there, can be seen in the use of sfumato. The painting belonged to Ferdinand III, Grand Duke of Tuscany, from whom it got its name.

Blue Moon July 31, 2015
There are two definitions of a Blue Moon in astronomy; both are a type of full moon. If the moon actually looks blue,
it's caused by a rare type of dust in the atmosphere.
In astronomy, a Blue Moon is a full Moon, which doesn't quite fit in with the months in our calendar. However,
there are two completely different ways of calculating which full Moon is a Blue Moon.
Blue Moon: The Full Explanation -Two definitions
Blue Moon = The third full Moon in an astronomical season with 4 full Moons (versus the normal 3)
Blue Moon = The second full Moon in a month with two full Moons.

Castelnuovo don Bosco , Piemonte
Passeggiavo, ero venuta qua per un giorno di festa, la grande fiera del 15 Agosto, ma soprattutto per andare a Colle don Bosco , dove c'è la basilica del Santo e la sua casa natale.
Ad un certo punto, in cima al paese, vedo una stradina laterale , quasi un sentiero , e lo imbocco. Pensavo portasse nei campi.
Mi trovo davanti a una chiesetta e a questa magnifica Madonna , credo del 1600. Che sorpresa ! Era la chiesetta in cui il piccolo Giovanni Bosco si recava con sua mamma , Margherita.
( se si cerca su Google : Madonna della cintura, Castelnuovo don Bosco si trovano notizie storiche ).
ps , La Chiesetta non è sempre aperta, solo in occasioni speciali, perché ricca di opere d'arte , che vengono spiegate al pubblico da volontari. Non so la domenica, per chi desiderasse visitarla. È emozionante, almeno per me
The sculpture is the 'Madonna of the Cross' by Malcolm Brocklesby.
Happy Easter!

The Shrine of the Madonna della Corona is a place of silence and meditation, extended between heaven and earth, hidden in the heart of the Monte Baldo cliffs. Medieval documents testify that hermits lived in the Monte Baldo area already around the year 1000 and that at least from the second half of the 13th century there was a monastery with a chapel dedicated to St Mary of Monte Baldo.
The church does not actually hang on the sheer face but instead sits on a thin rock shelf that can only be reached by a thin path.
In 1974 the architect Guido Tisato was assigned the job of preparing a project for an overall intervention that foresaw demolishing the existing church, while preserving its most important and significant parts, and the construction of a larger structure. Demolition and reconstruction of the Shrine were carried out from 1975 to 1978.
This little Portland chapel houses reproductions of numerous Madonna paintings from around the world.
