medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
I am pretty sure that the image on the cloak (or tilma) is a full
figure. It was my understanding that the tilma was on display not in
Mexico City but at the shrine of Our Lady of Guadalupe. There is some
discussion that I have read about the possible influences of a mediaeval
Spanish image of the B.V.M. which was popular with the early
missionaries in Mexico -- unfortunately I can't remember the name of the
town in SPain associated with that image!
