A forest landscape. In the foreground, St. Leonard of Noblat, an early Christian hermit. He sits against a tree and reads. Behind him, the chapel of Mary that he founded in Limoges. Next to the chapel, a monk buries something. In the background, the meeting between St. Leonard and King Clovis in a forest.
