This 13th century painting by Sassetta (1394-1450) features three devils beating Saint Anthony the hermit. Sassetta (Stefano di Giovanni) was an Italian who painted large altarpieces and scenes from the life of St. Anthony. Saint Anthony the Great (251-356) is also known as Anthony the Abbot and several other names. He is known as the patron saint for infectious diseases, particularly shingles which are known as Anthony's Fire in Italy. St. Anthony chose a monastic lifestyle and described being tempted and beaten by the devil.
