Description: | After her conversion to Christianity, St. Catherine dreamt that the infant Jesus placed a ring on her finger in a 'mystic marriage'. Here she is seen seated on the ground, holding a gold ring between her thumb and index finger. The Virgin Mary holding the infant Jesus is central, seated in an elaborate Gothic throne, with St Joseph kneeling on the left. In the distance a town with angels can be seen. | Subjects: | religion (Mystic Marriage of St Catherine); figure; buildings and gardens | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Cornelisz. van Oostsanen, Jacob (Netherlandish painter, woodcutter, born 1472-1477, died 1533 or earlier) Æ Attributed to manner of | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8896... | Go to resource |
