Engraved-style print of a bishop blessing two embracing monks before a crowd, with angels in clouds above and kneeling children at the bottom corners.

A bishop saint (Saint Nicholas?) with Saint Dominic Guzman (?) greeting two monk saints, surrounded by a crowd of onlookers. Lithograph by N.J. Strixner, 1811, after G.B. Paggi.

A bishop in mitre and cope raises his hand and holds a small reliquary toward two monks embracing at center, while a crowd of onlookers fills the background. Angels hover in clouds at the top, and small kneeling figures frame the lower corners in this pen-and-ink style print.

Español: Obispo santo bendiciendo a dos monjes ante una multitud, según Paggi

Un obispo con mitra y capa alza la mano y sostiene un pequeño relicario hacia dos monjes que se abrazan en el centro, mientras una multitud de espectadores llena el fondo. Ángeles flotan entre nubes en la parte superior, y pequeñas figuras arrodilladas enmarcan las esquinas inferiores.

Português: Bispo santo abençoando dois monges diante de uma multidão, após Paggi

Um bispo com mitra e capa levanta a mão e segura um pequeno relicário em direção a dois monges que se abraçam no centro, enquanto uma multidão de espectadores preenche o fundo. Anjos flutuam entre nuvens no alto, e pequenas figuras ajoelhadas emolduram os cantos inferiores.
