The Ecstasy of Saint Francis
A bearded friar in a brown habit reclines in a dark setting, his head tilted back and a skull resting in his hand, while two winged angels support and embrace him. A bright white and blue drapery on the left angel contrasts with the shadowy background, in a dramatic Baroque oil painting on canvas.
