Herewith a link to an earlier 'Saints of the day' for 1. April (including St. Venantius of Dalmatia; Sts. Agape and Chionia; St. Mary of Egypt; St. Walaricus; St. Hugh of Grenoble):

Further to Venantius of Dalmatia:
In that earlier post's notice of this saint, the link to a view of his depiction in the apse mosaic of the Lateran Baptistery's Cappella di San Venanzio no longer functions. Use these instead:

In the same notice, the link to the view of Venantius' companions as depicted on either side of the apse mosaic also no longer functions. Use this for the set on the viewer's left:

and these rather less good images for the set on the viewer's right:

In the same notice, the link to the second set of further views of this chapel's mosaics also no longer functions.
Further to Mary of Egypt:
In that earlier post's notice of this saint, the second paragraph should read:
The standard account (BHG 1042) also dates from the seventh century and is attributed in some witnesses to St. Sophronius, the earlier seventh-century patriarch of Jerusalem (and friend and traveling companion of St. John Moschus). In it M. is a former sex-craved prostitute from Alexandria who, having traveled to Jerusalem, underwent a religious conversion there. She then became a solitary in the Judean desert where she lived for forty-seven years without meeting anyone else until she was found by her narrator, now a monk named Zosimas (in Latin texts, Zosimus). Z. promised to bring her the Eucharist annually, which he did. On his second return he found M. dead. Z. buried her with the miraculous assistance of a lion who seems to many to have wandered in from St. Jerome's Vita of St. Paul of Thebes.
In the same notice, the first of the two links to eighteenth-century views of Rome's chiesa di Santa Maria Egiziaca no longer functions. Use this instead:

In the same notice, to the views of the Mary of Egypt window in the cathedral of Chartres add these two sets of views of the early thirteenth-century Mary of Egypt window in the cathedral of Bourges (the second set courtesy of Gordon Plumb):

In the same notice, the link to a view of Mary of Egypt and Zosimas / Zosimus as depicted in the church of the Hodegetria in the Patriarchate of Peæ no longer functions. Use this instead:
http://tinyurl.com/3u9nqr6
In the same notice, use now these links for views of Mary of Egypt and Zosimas / Zosimus as depicted in the nave of the church of the Holy Ascension at the Visoki Deèani monastery near Peæ:
http://tinyurl.com/6w339g5
http://tinyurl.com/7ddy4hj
In the same notice add after the links just specified this one to a view of Mary of Egypt (at left) and Zosimas / Zosimus (at right) as depicted in the late fourteenth-century frescoes (1389; restored in 1971/72) of the monastery church of St. Andrew at Matka (near Skopje) in the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia:

In the same notice the link to a view of Mary of Egypt as depicted in London, BL, MS Egerton 1070 no longer functions. Use this instead:
http://tinyurl.com/87x7ows
Further to Walaricus:
In that earlier post's notice of this saint, in the final paragraph for 'in the menu at left' please read 'in the menu in the map'.
Further to Hugh of Grenoble:
In that earlier post's notice of this saint, add this link to an illustrated, French-language account of Grenoble's cathédrale Notre-Dame (including matter on the adjacent église Saint-Hugues):
http://tinyurl.com/7l4uzn3
In the same notice, herewith a revised set of other views of the cathedral of Grenoble:

Add this "virtual tour" of both the cathedral and the adjacent église Saint-Hugues (clicking on the blue square at lower left in the plan of the latter church will bring up a good view of a large font for immersion baptisms):
