St. Francisco and Francisco Zurburan


Just sharing this amazing depiction of St. Francis with y’all. It is the work of Francisco Zurburan, a noted Spanish painter of the 17th century. Browse some of his other works here. I especially recommend his painting of a vision of St. Peter Nolasco, founder of the Mercedarian Order, and an image of Christ on the Cross.
