Description

Portuguese: Ilustração medieval de Santa Rita de Cássia, a mais antiga a representar a santa.
["Medieval illustration of Santa Rita, the oldest to represent the saint."]

Italian: Nell'angusta cella in cui Rita morì dopo quarant'anni di vita monastica è conservata una cassa di legno (detta cassa solenne) a forma di sarcofago. I disegni della cassa, eseguiti a tempera da un ignoto artista, raffigurano sulla tavola frontale (divisa in tre scomparti a forma di porticato) santa Maria Maddalena, il Cristo e santa Rita (di cui la foto è un particolare). Santa Rita è vestita da monaca agostiniana e irradia dal capo raggi di luce. Questa immagine è la più antica raffigurazione della Santa.
["In the narrow cell in which Rita died after forty years of monastic life is preserved a wooden box (called a solemn cassa) in the shape of a sarcophagus.
