Here's St Catherine, second from left in a Gerard David painting from around 1510 in London's National Gallery. The two figures to the right of the Virgin and Child are St Barbara and St Mary Magdalene. The man on the left is the donor.

The Christ Child is putting a ring on St Catherine's finger to represent their Mystic Marriage.

There's so much more to this picture, but I'll confine myself to saying I love it.

St. Mary the Virgin, Thornbury, South Glos.
And its' magnificent steeple topping.

This afternoon was a good play about the dystopian future of climate change and corporate dominance, but where queer love still wins.

This evening is a lovely program of Byrd and Pärt with The Sixteen.
