"Santa Zita: The Miracle at the Well" is a photogravure by Frederick Hollyer, made before 1885. The print depicts a scene of a woman drawing water from a well while a man, presumably a priest, looks on. The scene is framed by a garden, with a distant view of a landscape. Hollyer was a prominent photographer of the Victorian era, known for his photogravures, which combined photographic images with etching techniques to create high-quality prints. The photogravure technique captured great detail, giving the print a painterly quality.
