Vision of St. Bernard[1] (1650) is a painting by Spanish painter Alonzo Cano. Currently held by the Museo del Prado, it depics a Lactatio Bernardi, a variation on the Maria lactans theme. It depicts Mary who squirts mother milk from quite a distance into Bernard of Clairvaux's mouth.
Several versions of the vision of Saint Bernard were painted. There is one a by Fra Bartolommeo, c. 1504 at the Uffizi. Others include renditions by Murillo, Bellegambe, Claude Mellán, Christus Petrus, Juan Correa de Vivar, Antonio Peris, Juan de las Roelas, Juan Carreño and the Maestro de Borbotó[2].
