Label TextThe fresco of Saints James and Philip probably comes from the Romanesque church of Sant Iscle and Santa Victoria in Surp, Spain. Saint James, son of Alphaeus, shared the same Feast Day in the Catholic tradition as Saint Philip, likely the reason they are paired here.Published ReferencesToledo Museum of Art, The Toledo Museum of Art, European Paintings, Toledo, 1976, p. 107, pl. 45.
