As the National Gallery has a lot of Christian devotional paintings, you’ll find a lot of saints. Edward Dickenson, one of the Gallery’s educators, explains how to identify and recognise saints by their attributes, which range from wonderful to gruesome.
If you’re interested in learning more, you can find a list of attributes by category on our website: https://www.nationalgallery.org.uk/paintings/learn-about-art/paintings-in-depth/painting-saints/recognising-saints-objects
