Engraving of a kneeling friar in a hooded robe with arms raised toward light and angels in clouds, beside a skull, open book and cross.

Saint Francis of Assisi receiving the stigmata, with angels, engraving

A kneeling bearded friar in a hooded habit, with a rope cord at his waist, raises his arms toward rays of light breaking from a cloud where angels appear. A skull, an open book and a wooden cross rest on a rock in the foreground, and a small kneeling figure sits in the distance at right.
