_Paintings of Our Saviour._--In Mrs. Jameson's _Legends of the Monastic
Orders_, it is stated that "The painter, Andrea Vanni, was among the devout
admirers of St. Catherine;" and that "among his works was a head of Christ,
said to have been painted under the immediate instruction of St. Catherine;
representing the Saviour as she had, in her visions, beheld him. Unhappily
this has perished." Also, on the authority of Mr. Sterling, that St. Juan
de la Cruz, the friend of St. Theresa, "on one occasion when the Saviour
appeared to him, made an uncouth sketch of the divine apparition; which was
long preserved as a relique in the Convent of the Incarnation at Avila."
Can any of your readers supply particulars of, or references to, other
similar portraitures, especially of any still in existence?
