Correction: My brother explained to me that there are two St. Catherines. One a legend, the other an early feminist and scholar in the church. The painting at the Blanton that I have been visiting all this time is St. Catherine of Alexandria, the legend. This is a painting of St. Catherine of Siena, the feminist, by Sano di Pietro, and the Catherine in mind when naming my sweet niece. Thank you for the saintly lesson, Steve!
