Saints

From medieval illuminated manuscripts through twentieth-century Symbolist canvases, female saints appear accompanied by avian companions—doves, ravens, and more exotic species—each carrying distinct iconographic weight. These winged creatures function as celestial messengers, souls in transformation, or emblems of spiritual transcendence. Occasionally, a cat intrudes upon these compositions, introducing earthly tension into otherwise ethereal tableaux. The interplay between feathered and furred familiars creates rich visual theology, mapping the saint’s navigation between material and mystical domains across centuries of devotional imagery.
