I remember I was so obsessed with all the paintings mentioned in The Da Vinci Code when I first read it. The Madonna of the rocks was used for one of the first clues... #LadyMadonna #HeyJune

Still have my college Art History text. Pulled it off the shelf to find one of the many #ladymadonna paintings. This is Madonna of the Harpies by Andrea Del Sarto 1517. It is in the Uffizi in Florence. #heyjune

Decided to go literal with today's prompt and reference the ghostly #LadyMadonna manifestation that guides the protagonist from certain death in one of my favorite Atwood novels. My copy of this must have crept away like a nun, so this image is courtesy of audible.com #HeyJune @GypsyKat @Cinfhen

OK, kind of random, but I picked this one for the 'lady' in the title, plus the mother-daughter Route 66 road trip to Vegas in a turquoise '57 T-Bird, looking for the daughter's twin who paints pictures of roadside crosses (crosses make me think of the madonna) & is schizophrenic, & finally, the mother's stories about being a Vegas showgirl-'making ends meet.'
I read in back in 2006 according to Goodreads. 😆

When Paul McCartney wrote “#LadyMadonna,” he certainly wasn‘t talking about Ms. Ciccone. Nearly twenty years later, George Harrison was an executive producer on “Shanghai Surprise,” co-starring Madge & Sean Penn.

It‘s a small, small world!

#LadyMadonna contains the line (I've always heard as) "Sunday morning creeping like a nun". So here is the Second Nun from The Canterbury Tales ?
#HeyJune

An Italian immigrant family living in the mountains of West Virginia with a granddaughter who is covered in port wine stains. People become convinced she is Saint Garnet healer of skin conditions and pilgrims begin coming to visit her to be healed. The Vatican eventually sends someone to investigate and the family history is revealed. #ladymadonna #heyjune
