The composition is divided into five scenes: in the center, Saint Augustine is consecrated bishop of Hippo Regius, a Roman city in present-day Algeria; in the upper left, Saint Augustine is ordained as a priest; in the lower left, Saint Augustine preaches while his mother, Monica, anachronistically says the rosary, a prayer regimen of the late Middle Ages. At the upper right, Saint Augustine converses with a boy who says that filling a hole in the sand with the sea is no more difficult than explaining the Trinity; and in the lower right, Saint Augustine preaches. In the windows behind the altar at the right are kneeling figures of a man and woman, along with coats of arms. Might these be clues to the original place for which the altarpiece was created, or are they pure inventions? Of particular interest in this panel are the detailed and richly depicted varieties of ecclesiastical vestments and altar implements.\" - (\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.metmuseum.org\/art\/collection\/search\/471903\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"The Metropolitan Museum of Art New York - Scenes from the Life of Saint Augustine of Hippo\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eThe Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York\u003c\/a\u003e)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Master of Saint Augustine","offers":[{"title":"No Size Selected (Select a Size)","offer_id":49887962398963,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Replica Size (59 7\/8\" x 64 1\/2\")","offer_id":49887962431731,"sku":null,"price":5600.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Signature Size (17 1\/4\" x 18 5\/8\")","offer_id":49887962464499,"sku":null,"price":695.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Classic Size (21 1\/8\" x 22 3\/4\")","offer_id":49887962497267,"sku":null,"price":895.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gallery Size (25 7\/8\" x 27 7\/8\")","offer_id":49887962530035,"sku":null,"price":1295.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Statement Size (33 3\/8\" x 36\")","offer_id":49887962562803,"sku":null,"price":1995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Grand Size (40\" x 43 1\/8\")","offer_id":49887962595571,"sku":null,"price":2795.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Estate Size (47 1\/4\" x 51\")","offer_id":49887962628339,"sku":null,"price":3695.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Museum Size (56 5\/8\" x 61\")","offer_id":49887962661107,"sku":null,"price":4995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0827\/5738\/6483\/files\/ScenesfromtheLifeofSaintAugustineofHippo.jpg?v=1790264359","url":"https:\/\/commissionedpaintings.com\/products\/scenes-from-the-life-of-saint-augustine-of-hippo","provider":"Commissioned Paintings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
