Saints Veronica, Lucy, and Apollonia

Fresco
Basilica of Sant'Eustorgio, Milan, Italy

This is a segment of a fresco with several saints. The names of the saints are inscribed on the wall below, but even without them Saints Veronica and Apollonia would be easily recognized by the veil with the Holy Face for Veronica and the tooth extractor for Apollonia. The object in St. Lucy's right hand could be a candle; it does not seem to be the pair of eyes sometimes used as her attribute.
