Our Lady of Good Counsel is a title given to the Blessed Virgin Mary, often referring to the episode of the Wedding at Cana, during which Mary utters the last words attributed to her by the Gospels, "Do whatever he tells you," the most excellent of counsels. The Madonna del Buon Consiglio, Our Lady of Good Counsel, is also the title given to the Virgin Mary after a painting said to be miraculous was found in the 13th century in an Augustinian church in the town of Genazzano, about 30 miles southeast of Rome.
