Saint Catherine

Image not available


Signed by the artist, this work is often thought to be the only print that the artist himself created. The beautiful saint is shown with her attributes, including a broken wheel, an instrument of the torture she suffered for fighting the persecution of Christians. Rubens’s dramatic worm’s-eye view emphasizes her grandeur and courage, further accentuated by the spirited tilt of her head and muscular left leg extending toward the viewer.
