'St Michael and Engracia', c1489-c1513. St Michael the Archangel stands on the devil. In his right hand he holds the scales which weigh the souls of men. On the left is St Engracia (Encratis or Encratide), a Portuguese virgin martyred in 304 at Saragossa, Spain during the persecution of Christians by the Emperor Diocletian (284-313). In one hand she holds a martyr's palm and from her head a nail protrudes. (Photo by Ann Ronan Pictures/Print Collector/Getty Images)
