    Open a larger version of the following image in a popup: An oil painting of Saint Catherine, Anthony of Padua and Ursula, set in a natural landscape. Saint Catherine is seen on the left dressed in pink, blue and orange. At her feet, a broken spiked wheel and sword. The wheel is the instrument of torture that Catherine was condemned to death on by the Roman Emperor Maxentius [306-312] for her strong Christian beliefs. According to legend, the wheel broke when she touched it, so she was beheaded with the sword. In the Centre, Saint Anthony of Padua, dressed in a monk's robe, is holding a white lily and an open book. According to legend, the book represents an event when Anthony had a psalter (a book of psalms) stolen in Bologna, which is the origin of calling upon St. Anthony when something is lost or stolen. The lily represents purity and his battle against the devil. Saint Ursula, on the right, is dressed in red, blue and white, holding a flag and a single arrow. The legendary Romano-British Christian saint is said to have died along with an anonymous group of holy virgins in Cologne. Saint Ursula was fatally shot with an arrow during a pan-European pilgrimage by the leader of the Huns', a nomadic people who lived in Central Asia who had besieged Cologne. Artwork details: Artist: Lorenzo Costa. Artwork title: S. Antonio da Padova e le Sante Caterina e Orsola. Artwork year: c.1500-25. Artwork medium: Oil on board. Artwork dimensions: 217 x 175.5 x 2.5 cm.
