The Temptation of St Anthony (ca. 1510) by Hieronymus Bosch (ca. 1450-1516)
A tryptych describing the ordeals of St Anthony
NB Back then, temptation not only had the meaning it has today, but also
meant physical/mental assault by demons. So St Anthony is not only
tempted by the pleasures of the flesh etc but he is also beaten up and
terrorized by the demons.
