"Saint Catherine of Alexandria: A Timeless Icon of Faith and Martyrdom" In the realm of Christian art, few figures have captured the imagination quite like St. Catherine of Alexandria. From the delicate brushstrokes of Master of Saint Gudule to the intricate engravings by Claude Mellan, her story has been immortalized in various forms throughout history.

These powerful artworks remind us that even in the face of persecution, St. Catherine stood firm in her beliefs, refusing to renounce her allegiance to Christ.
