Vol. I, 490-1 (= no. H.115) and vol. II, fig. H.112: St. Monica by Hendrick Bloemaert (c. 1650), Utrecht, convent of Augustinian Sisters of St. Monica (since Jan. 1996 at Eindhoven, Augustinian monastery). This picture (133,7x98,3cm) was originally made for the Augustinian missionary station at Utrecht. Its pendant St. Augustine by the same painter (c. 1650), possibly made for the same church, was sold by Sotheby's, London in 1959, whose present location is unknown (see Vol. I, 491, no. H.116, and II, fig. H.113). Another painting of St. Monica (vol. I, 491-2, no. H.117, and II, fig. H.114) by Hendrick Bloemaert (c. 1600-1672) is preserved at Amiens, Musée de Picardie, since 1875. The first two paintings belonged in the 1930ths to St. Augustine's at Utrecht.
