In the colonial city of Antigua, the convent of Saint Catherine, Virgin and Martyr, was the home of cloistered nuns. It spans both sides of the street, and the arch of Santa Catalina was built to provide a private walkway so the nuns didn't have to go out in public. Painted a cheerful yellow, today it is landmark for tourists and residents alike as Victor Mayor depicts the street scene as it is today. Titled "Arco de Santa Catalina" in Spanish.
