St. Agnes; The Marriage of the Virgin; St. Ildefonsus; St. Timothy is a 1634 ink by Jacques Callot, a Baroque work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This image shows four small oval scenes, each framed like a window. The top left has a woman holding a lamb, standing by a city. The top right shows a bride and groom with a priest in a church. The bottom left has a woman lighting a fire while a man watches. The bottom right depicts a bishop holding a book and a scroll. Notice how each scene is labeled with names like *St. Agnes* or *St. Timothy*—these are saints from Christian stories. The artist used sharp lines and shadows to make the figures stand out.
