In the parish of San Nicola Magno of Santa Maria a Vico (CE) there are numerous Marian icons reproduced on canvas or carved in different materials that testify to the great cult of the Mother of God of the first inhabitants of the ancient "Casale del Figliarino". In 1627, the parish priests Fr Flavio Cioffi and Fr Marcello Vellaccio erected to the right of the high altar the chapel of Santa Maria della Nova, in which the following year a confraternity with the same name was founded; moreover, towards 1644 the chapel was embellished by a golden icon depicting the Madonna holding the Child among the saints Anna, Gioacchino and Antonio da Padova. This painting, restored in 2015, turned out to be the only known autograph work of the Spanish Juan Do (Giovanni Dose), one of the students of Ribera, active in Naples until 1656.

Very good blog! Do you have any helpful hints for aspiring writers?
I'm planning to start my own blog soon but I'm a little
lost on everything. Would you advise starting with a free platform like
Wordpress or go for a paid option? There are so many options out
there that I'm totally overwhelmed .. Any recommendations?
Cheers!
You really make it seem so easy with your presentation but I
find this matter to be really something that I think I would never understand.
It seems too complex and very broad for me. I am looking
forward for your next post, I'll try to get the hang of it!
