A 15th-century doll of the Christ Child that survived an Italian earthquake will be displayed as part of a forthcoming exhibition in Cambridge.

The Christ Child had been confirmed as an object of the "Madonnas and Miracles: The Holy Home in Renaissance Italy" exhibition at the Fitzwilliam Museum before the earthquake took place last year.

But in October, the monastery of Santa Chiara, where the doll is venerated, was struck by an earthquake which reduced most of the building to rubble.

Miraculously, the doll survived unscathed.
