The Ultimate Who's Who Guide:
How to Identify Saints in Art
A little sneak peek...
Why should you know about saints in art?
HERE'S WHY...
When we consider the content of Western art, we quickly realize that for well over a millennium, the majority was Christian in nature. This is hardly surprising given that Christianity, and therefore the Church, touched upon almost every aspect of the daily lives of its followers. As such, being able to identify saints in art and understand the function of these types of images is a crucial step to take in broadening your knowledge of art and its history.
In this TWO-PART Masterclass, we will be:
- learning about a topic every art enthusiast needs to know.
- discussing some of the most popular saints in art.
- addressing the broader context in which these types of images were produced.
- giving you the confidence to identify saints without having to rely on gallery info plaques and Google searches.

What's included:
Part 1:
We begin with a general overview of saints, their importance for the faithful and how a system developed in which they can be quickly and easily identified. This is followed by a look at three very important saints who were close to Jesus, as well as a consideration of several saints whose stories are particularly grisly, saints who are known as Christian martyrs.
Part 2:
In the second part of this Masterclass, we expand our knowledge of saints in art by learning about the Four Evangelists, two plague saints, and two female saints who met rather unfortunate ends. We also look at the inclusion and meaning of donors in art, as well as an example of how certain saints and the works of art in which they appear can tell us about a particular period or event.

Meet your host...
Hi, I'm Anik. I'm an art historian - with a PhD from the University of Cambridge to boot! - who is crazy about all things art. It's what I love, it's what I do.
I know from personal experience that learning about art not only provides a welcome break from the hustle of everyday life, it also teaches us about history, culture and the world around us.
I'm here to share that experience, along with my expertise and passion for the subject, so that you can broaden your knowledge and unleash your inner art connoisseur!
