Lisbon, Portugal

Every city of southern Europe, Lisbon included, has its patron saint, many of them martyrs like St. Vincent. Just as St. Vincent's body was protected from wild animals by the ravens (see them?), St. Vincent will protect Lisbon. The name of the 17th century monastery in the background? The Monastery of São Vicente, of course. [2009]
