About this work

St. Agnes, seated to the left, holding a palm branch and a book on her lap. Beside her, the lamb. In the background, an attempt is made to kill her on the pyre, but the flames only burn her executioners. An angel crowns her with a laurel wreath. The second print of a seventeen-part series of female saints.
