Description
A central female figure cloaked in a golden drape holds what appears to be a palm frond and a chalice, symbolizing martyrdom and sanctity in Christian iconography. Surrounding her are putti (cherubic figures), various religious and regal symbols, and a background scene depicting military action with soldiers and a fortification. Above, a duo likely representing a saintly or divine presence looks on from the clouds with a globe beneath them, suggesting a connection to heavenly authority or approval.
