The earliest news concerning the image of Our Lady of the Bramble dates back to the mid-16th century. The documental sources describe the existence of two altars of the same invocation: one in a chapel of the Cathedral's cloister and another in an altar by the second pillar on the right-hand side of the church's entrance. The image will remain in this place until 1722, when it is transferred to the altarpiece where it stands today, executed between 1719 and 1720.
