Wall-painting found in 1849 in the ruins of the demolished church of Prophet Elijah, near the ancient Agora in Athens. Initially the scene was known as the Virgin of the Catalans, as it was thought that the coats of arms belonged to the Catalans who ruled Athens in the 14th century. But the Latin initials F-A and L-S have been identified with the names of Francesco Acciajuoli, Duke of Athens (1451-1460) and the Genovese nobleman Lorenzo Spinola.
