"Legendary Saints of France (center frieze)" is a lithograph on paper created by Georges-William Thornley in 1888. It depicts a row of six figures, all robed and holding religious symbols. This work is an example of the artist’s use of line and shading to create a sense of depth and dimensionality. The composition is balanced and harmonious, with the figures arranged in a pleasing symmetrical pattern. The artwork is currently housed at the Art Institute of Chicago.
