The devotion is based on a painting of Mary that hangs in the church of St. Peter am Perlach in Augsburg, Germany. The painting depicts Mary untying a knot in a ribbon. The knots in the ribbon are said to symbolize the difficulties and problems people encounter in their lives, and devotion to Mary as the "Undoer of Knots" brings comfort and help in solving these difficulties. The devotion spread to other countries, and now there are many churches and sanctuaries dedicated to Mary around the world.
