Catherine of Alexandria c. 1507. Oil painting
Catherine of Alexandria c. 1507. Oil painting on wood, by the Italian High Renaissance artist (Raphael), Raffaello Sanzio da Urbino (1483-1520). The depiction of religious passion in the painting is still reminiscent of Pietro Perugino. But the graceful contrapposto of Catherine's pose is typical of the influence of Leonardo da Vinci on Raphael, and is believed to be an echo of Leonardo's lost painting Leda and the Swan
