The image has numerous unexplainable phenomena, such as the appearance on Mary\u2019s eyes of those present in the room when the tilma was opened and the image\u2019s lack of decay.<\/p>\n<p>Mrs. Clinton was received on Thursday at 8:15 a.m. by the rector of the Basilica, Msgr. Diego Monroy.<\/p>\n<p>Msgr. Monroy took Mrs. Clinton to the famous image of Our Lady of Guadalupe, which had been previously lowered from its usual altar for the occasion.  After observing it for a while, Mrs. Clinton asked \u201cwho painted it?\u201d to which Msgr. Monroy responded \u201cGod!\u201d<br>\n\u2026<br>\nAfter placing a bouquet of white flowers by the image, Mrs. Clinton went to the quemador \u2013the open air area at the Basilica where the faithful light candles- and lit a green candle.
