caption: SAINT PHILOMENA (291 -304) Devotional image depicting the Saint Martyr lived in the Paleochristian era, with the symbols of her martyrdom: scourge, arrows, anchor and lily. It is said that she, the princess of Corfu, emigrated the emperor Diocletian, who in front of his refusal motivated by the vow of chastity made to Christ made her martyred. The real existence of the saint is not proven, but presumed by some relics and the inscription "Pax tecum Filumena" discovered in 1802 in the catacombs of Priscilla. Commemoration 11 August, Chromolithography, Germany end of the 19th century
