Description: | A nun is praying with a group of monks whilst a miracle is being performed by a monk on a man with gangrene in the leg and which is about to be amputated. It is believed that the monks are from an Augustinian order. The work is recorded as being by a Spanish painter of the late sixteenth or early seventeenth century but it is possible that it was painted for export to Spain from Antwerp as it is on a large sheet of copper that would have facilitated ease of travel. Wellcome purchased this painting in Spain. | Subjects: | figure; interior; still life | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Spanish School Æ Attributed to | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8329... | Go to resource |
