Title
Icona della Madonna dei Miracoli
Description
English: In the thirteenth century a canon bequeathed to the cathedral an ancient Byzantine icon depicting the Virgin with the Infant Jesus, considered the work of St. Luke. This icon was immediately used in the solemn liturgies of the cathedral (already linked to the Marian cult, by title), and immediately became dear to the citizens, so much so that the canons took up the use of gathering around the image, singing an antiphon on Saturday Marian. The painting was also transported outside in solemn processions, so much so that it was necessary, in the fourteenth century, to preserve it from wear with copies. Two of these replacement paintings are still preserved today, works by Guariento di Arpo (now in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York) and by Giusto de 'Menabuoi (now in the Diocesan Museum, in the Episcopal Palace). From the seventeenth century the historic icon was displayed on the special altar in the new right transept, but due to an accident, it was ruined in 1647. It was immediately replaced with an identical copy, so much so that it was discovered that it was not the original only in 1974.
Français : Au XIIIe siècle, un chanoine légua à la cathédrale une ancienne icône byzantine représentant la Vierge à l'Enfant Jésus, considérée comme l'œuvre de saint Luc. Cette icône fut immédiatement utilisée dans les liturgies solennelles de la cathédrale (déjà liée au culte marial, par son titre), et devint immédiatement si chère aux citoyens que les chanoines prirent les vêpres du sabbat pour se rassembler autour de l'image entonnant un antienne Marian. Le tableau a également été transporté à l’extérieur lors de processions solennelles, au point qu’il a fallu, au XIVe siècle, le préserver de l’usure des copies. Deux de ces tableaux de remplacement sont encore conservés aujourd'hui, ceux de Guariento di Arpo (maintenant au Metropolitan Museum of Art de New York) et de Giusto de 'Menabuoi (maintenant au Diocesan Museum, dans le palais épiscopal). À partir du XVIIe siècle, l’icône historique s’affiche sur l’autel spécial du nouveau transept droit, mais elle est détruite par un accident en 1647. Il a été immédiatement remplacé par un exemplaire identique, à tel point qu'il a été découvert qu'il ne s'agissait pas de l'original qu'en 1974.
Italiano: Nel XIII secolo un canonico lasciò in eredità alla cattedrale un'antica icona bizantineggiante raffigurante la Vergine con il Bambin Gesù in fasce, ritenuta opera di san Luca. Quest'icona fu subito utilizzata nelle solenni liturgie della cattedrale (già legata al culto mariano, per titolo), e divenne subito cara ai cittadini tanto che ai vespri del sabato i canonici presero l'uso di raccogliersi intorno all'immagine intonando un'antifona mariana. Il dipinto veniva anche trasportato all'esterno in solenni processioni, tanto che fu necessario, nel XIV secolo, preservarlo dall'usura con delle copie. Due di questi dipinti sostitutivi si conservano tutt'oggi, opere rispettivamente di Guariento di Arpo (ora al Metropolitan Museum of Art di New York) e di Giusto de' Menabuoi (ora al Museo Diocesano, in Palazzo Episcopale). Dal XVII secolo l'icona storica fu esposta sull'apposito altare nel nuovo transetto destro, ma a causa di un incidente, nel 1647 rovinò. Fu subito sostituita con una copia identica, tanto che si scoprì che non era l'originale solo nel 1974.
