[QUOTE="Bronwen, post: 9426737, member: 5833"]I looked up St. Hubert & found that the story is that he was out hunting when he encountered a stag with a cross on its head between the horns. He was converted & eventually became a bishop of the Church. The conventions for depicting him are either sporting or ecclesiastical garb, with the cross-headed stag by him. On the other hand, when I look up Gaspar Huberti, which is what it says on the eBay item, I get things like this: [URL]https://www.britishmuseum.org/collection/term/BIOG83036[/URL] [URL]https://www.libraryireland.com/irishartists/gaspar-huberti.php[/URL] IMO, the other one is also Mary Magdalen.
