The Church of Sant’Agostino

Stories from the Life of Christ

The Augustinians, following Christ’s example, led a simple life made up of charity, poverty, preaching and brotherly love. These virtues are exalted in some paintings in the church which illustrate the life of Jesus. Among them, some are devoted to his infancy, others to the last moments of his life.
