The Olivetan Master has portrayed these four Saints as a tightly knit group in prayer. While they exude a certain degree of pious reflection, they are singularly harmonious in their formal rhythms and reverence. For example, the two figures on the end have their arms crossed while the two interior figures have their hands in gestures of prayer. Mixed-Media Painting.
