Description
Undated but presumably 17th Century engraving signed by C. Galle. Mounted on matboard. Saint Apollonia's garb and mien are aristocratic in style, with a pastoral setting in the background. She holds a martyr's palm in her left hand and dental forceps with an extracted tooth in her right hand. The name "S. Apollonia" appears beneath the main image. Original piece measures 9 X 7 cm.
