A woman with a baby in the Kyiv metro from a painting by Ukrainian illustrator Marina Solomennikova was depicted in an Italian church.

According to Espresso, this was announced in his social networks by Pastor Pavlo Levushkan.

Madonna of Kyiv" from the metro is now in a Catholic Church in Naples," the note says.

Note that the illustration on the page of Solomennikova appeared on March 5. It referred to a real photo of a woman hiding with a two-month-old child in the subway from the shelling of the invaders.

The woman in the photo was also found. Her name is Tetiana Blyznyak. On February 25, she and her husband, child and dog went to the metro station. The woman said they were supposed to evacuate on February 26 but could not get out of the subway due to fierce fighting.

In the end, they managed to leave for Lviv. Now the whole family is safe, and the photo of Tetiana Blyznyak has become one of the symbols of the war.
