About the piece
This 1620 painting depicts Saint Genevieve, the patron saint of Paris, standing majestically before a detailed cityscape of the French capital. Clad in a regal red cloak and crown, she holds a book of prayers and the keys to the city, symbolizing her role as protector. The background features landmarks like the Hôtel de Ville and Notre-Dame, rendered with remarkable architectural precision typical of the era.
