St. Agatha COLLECTION (M 003)

Saints often have multiple patronages. Although best known as the patron saint of breast cancer patients, St. Agatha of Sicily (c. 231-351) is also the patron saint of nurses, single laywomen, women in jeopardy, rape victims, and victims of torture in general. See catholicsaints.info/saint-agatha-of-sicily/ for an even more extensive list and a short bio. + The palette of this chromolithograph is both extensive and very rich indeed. The main colors (with hex codes) are cream (#F6F0CF), blue (#BADCD1, #8AC2CB), and teal (#8FC1C0, #99C6AA, #5B947B, #5B8758). As used here, the most important supplementary colors are: orange red (#D24010), green gold (#A29F33), golden yellow (#DAB42C), rust (#AA3F12), and very dark brown (#4C280C). This list is by no means exhaustive; and buyers are urged to experiment with color combinations.
