Saint Nurse

SOLD

Deeply touched by the courage and selflessness of health service staff around the world I decided to paint this tribute to them. Their heroic work should be remembered by generations to come! 

This painting depicts a nurse taking a selfie while on a shift during the outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic. Her face is covered with painful marks from wearing a face mask. 

nursing_standard Instagram page shared this photo with a caption:

"Italian nurse Alessia Bonari (@alessiabonari_ ) shared this selfie of her face covered in bruises as a result of the protective gear she has to wear to guard against the spread of #covıd19. She describes how tired and frightened all the nurses she works with are, but explains how proud she is to be a nurse. Alessia and her colleagues are determined to keep delivering excellent care to their patients."
