Saint Catherine with a Kneeling Male Donor

Cleveland Museum of Art

Saint Catherine with a Kneeling Male Donor by an unknown artist, depicts a stained-glass window featuring a prominent female figure, Saint Catherine, and a smaller male figure on one knee. The window's top section shows a white castle with multiple spires against a blue sky. Saint Catherine wears a blue dress with a red underskirt, a gold-trimmed head covering, and holds a sword in her right hand and a book in her left. The kneeling male donor is dressed in white and gold. The scene is set against a backdrop that includes architectural details and text at the bottom. The color palette includes shades of blue, red, gold, white, and green. The composition is divided into two main sections: the upper part with the castle and the lower part with the figures.
