Our Lady of the Rosary is a depiction of the Blessed Virgin Mary according to the apparition of St Dominic (1170–1221) where he saw the Virgin Mary and received some beads from her. The preacher called it the crown of roses and subsequently spread the Rosary. During his travels and sermons, he preached the magic power of the Rosary, because it was allegedly the path to God. The cult of Our Lady of the Rosary has an important place in monastic tradition.
