He also wears a black habit, which his followers, the Antonine monks, later adopted. Next to him, slightly set back, is Saint Francis of Assisi, with his dark brown friar’s habit and a bloody wound on his hand. This is one of the stigmata – the five wounds suffered by Christ on the Cross, which were miraculously visited on the saint.\n\nSacchi has created a simple but effective contrast between the two meditative saints. They appear to share the same physical space, lit by a bright, raking light from the left, but they seem unaware of each other. Saint Anthony is immersed in his studies; Saint Francis’s hands are crossed in religious submission, and his gaze is turned heavenwards. A painting by Gian Lorenzo Bernini, Sacchi’s contemporary, which depicts two saints and has a similar format and dimensions is also in the National Gallery’s collection.\" - (\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.nationalgallery.org.uk\/paintings\/andrea-sacchi-saints-anthony-abbot-and-francis-of-assisi\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"National Gallery of Art London - Saints Anthony Abbot and Francis of Assisi\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eNational Gallery of Art, London\u003c\/a\u003e)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Andrea Sacchi","offers":[{"title":"No Size Selected (Select a Size)","offer_id":50509401522419,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Replica Size (24\" x 30 3\/4\")","offer_id":50509401555187,"sku":null,"price":1218.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Signature Size (15 3\/4\" x 20 1\/8\")","offer_id":50509401587955,"sku":null,"price":695.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Classic Size (19 3\/8\" x 24 7\/8\")","offer_id":50509401620723,"sku":null,"price":895.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gallery Size (23 3\/4\" x 30 3\/8\")","offer_id":50509401653491,"sku":null,"price":1295.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Statement Size (30 5\/8\" x 39 3\/8\")","offer_id":50509401686259,"sku":null,"price":1995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Grand Size (36 3\/4\" x 47\")","offer_id":50509401719027,"sku":null,"price":2795.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Estate Size (43 1\/4\" x 55 5\/8\")","offer_id":50509401751795,"sku":null,"price":3695.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Museum Size (51 7\/8\" x 66 3\/8\")","offer_id":50509401784563,"sku":null,"price":4995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0827\/5738\/6483\/files\/SaintsAnthonyAbbotandFrancisofAssisi.jpg?v=1788663841","url":"https:\/\/commissionedpaintings.com\/products\/saints-anthony-abbot-and-francis-of-assisi-ngal151","provider":"Commissioned Paintings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
