Description

St. Margaret of Castello is the patron saint of children with disabilities. St. Margaret's noble parents rejected her because she was born blind, lame and with a spinal problem. They had her walled up beside the chapel when she was six years old so that no one would see her and kept her there for fourteen years. They then brought her to a shrine to pray for a cure. When none occurred they abandoned her. St. Margaret became much beloved by the people of Castello, known for her kindness and patience and her service to the poor, the sick, and to prisoners.

She is shown as a fairy God-mother, protecting and appreciating the small child she watches over.

This is an archival print. The original is gouache on paper. The image size is 4.75"x 5".
