Roma - Santa Maria in Cosmedin
A Roman Temple existed here near an ancient food wholesale-market. Over the the centuries this temple was converted into a small Christian church. When during the iconoclastic riots in Byzantium many Greeks fled to Rome, Pope Adrian I in 772 commisioned the building of the church. Greek monks decorated the church, known as "Santa Maria in Schola Graeca" at that time.
I could not find any information about this fresco.
The icon "Jesus´ First Bath" can often be found on the "Apennine Peninsula" (now: "Italy") within the 12th century - and the Virgin has the very typical reclining posture, just like the Etruscian ladies, but the frescoe seems somehow younger.
