Original artwork description:
Pencil and pastel drawing in contemporary figurative style inspired by the moment when Saint Catherine of Siena was summoned to Rome in 1378 by Urban VI to help him restore the unity of the Church against the French who, in Fondi, elected the antipope Clement VII. She went to Rome with her disciples and disciples and defended him strenuously, until she died exhausted from physical suffering while still fighting. It was April 29, 1380, and Catherine was thirty-three years old, like her Spouse, Jesus Christ.
Materials used:
