SPANISH SCHOOL TO 1600 Saint Barbara Reinforced pine panel. 80,4 x 37 cm. Saint Barbara is said to have been born in Nicomedy, in present-day Turkey. Refusing to see her convert to Christianity, her father locked her in a tower that was lit by only two windows. However, she managed to be baptized and had the tower pierced by a third window, making a symbol of the Holy Trinity.
