Original artwork description:

Artwork in expressionist style with warm but earthy colors that exalt the paleness of Saint Catherine of Siena at the moment in which, on the point of death, the stigmata she received on April 1, 1375 became evident. It seems in fact that Her stigmatization was different from that of Saint Francis or Padre Pio, whose wounds were visible and bleeding. Those of the great Saint, for Her express prayer, ("Ah, Lord my God, that they do not appear, I beg you, externally the scars in my body; it is enough for me to have them internally"), were made invisible for the whole life and only exhaling Her last breath the phenomenon of the apparition of the five "holes" occurred.
