This is the tomb of Pope St. Pius V as seen in the Patriarchal Basilica of St. Mary Major in Rome. He used to be incorrupt, but now only the skeleton remains.
To read about his life (Chapter 5 is entitled "Lepanto: The Holy Alliance Against The Turks), then get the little book entitled St. Pius V by Robin Anderson (Tan Books and Publishers: http://www.tanbooks.com/ ) and enjoy!

TAN is the best publisher of Catholic books in the English language by far.
