Miracle of Saint Peregrino Laziosi. Oil on canvas. Spanish school, 18th century. Oil on canvas depicting a man surrounded by angels and seated on a cloud next to the crucified Christ, who is touching the wound on the man's leg. Below is a cartouche with an inscription alluding to the identity of the monk and the moment in which he is depicted. Saint Peregrino Laziosi or Saint Pellegrino da Fortí (1665/66-1345) was a friar of the Order of the Servants of Mary, also known as the Servites. According to tradition, he developed cancer in his foot, and spent the night before his leg was amputated in prayer. When he awoke, he was cured, and is therefore considered by some to be the patron saint of those afflicted with this disease. Peregrino was canonized by Pope Benedict XIII in 1726. The composition of the present work, although not the most common on the subject, can be seen in other examples, such as the 1682 painting by Girolamo da Rocca in the church of Santa Maria Annunziata in Guastalla in Italy; a painting in the Servites of Carmona (Seville); etc.
