VEDNO DEVICA MARIJA - NAŠA GOSPA ZMAGOVALKA

All the more interesting, as noted by the late Brazilian Catholic leader and historian, professor Plinio Corrêa de Oliveira, in an article on the battle of Lepanto which appears here:

Catholic sources often do not mention a crucial fact, which is present in some Muslim sources. The latter say – and up to this point all Catholic sources agree – that there was a certain time when the situation of Catholics seemed desperate. There had been a terrible clash between the two armies on board ships, and in this stage of the battle, Catholics were in retreat and the situation seemed completely lost. But suddenly, when least expected, the Muslims began to back away, and when some of them were asked what was happening, they replied that a lady dressed as a queen had appeared in the sky, gazing at them with such a scary look that they lost all their courage and started to run away.
