As one of the Fourteen Holy Helpers, Barbara continues to be a popular saint in modern times, perhaps best known as the patron saint of artillerymen, military engineers, miners and others who work with explosives because of her old legend's association with lightning, and also of mathematicians. copyright by © 2002, OLIVIA HEUSSLER Exhibition »Via Gotthard«, Leica Camera Galerie Bienne 2003
