Ceramic tile in the Hermitage of San Antonio (formerly a synagogue) in the Barrio de San Antonio, Cáceres depicts Saint Anthony of Padua with the Child Jesus.
Saint Anthony of Padua: shown as a Franciscan, wearing a brown habit, with a halo, holding the Child Jesus in his arms. The Child Jesus: also with a halo, blessing or holding a symbol (often a book or cross).
Lily branch in St. Anthony’s left hand: a classic attribute, symbol of purity.
Cloud with cherub heads under his feet: sign of holiness and heavenly glory.
Baroque-style ceramic frame with black floral motifs on a white background, reinforces the Christian dedication of the former synagogue to Saint Anthony.
Saint Anthony of Padua is the patron of many hermitages and popular neighborhoods in Spain. The placement of devotional ceramic tiles on facades and hermitages became a widespread tradition from the 17th century onward, especially in Extremadura and Andalusia, so that neighbors and passersby could entrust themselves to the saint.
