Miracles of Saint Dominic depicted in the marble relief carved by Italian Early Renaissance sculptor Nicola Pisano and his assistants Lapo di Ricevuto and Arnolfo di Cambio (1267) on the Arca di San Domenico (Shrine of Saint Dominic) in the Basilica of San Domenico (Basilica di San Domenico) in Bologna, Emilia-Romagna, Italy. The Apostles Peter and Paul appear to Saint Dominic, while he was praying in the basilica of Saint Peter in Rome, and give him the staff and the Book as the symbols of the Apostolic mission. The Saint sends his followers out on their mission to preach in the world.
