St. Genevieve; St. Titus; St. Simeon Stylites; Epiphany is a 1634 ink by Jacques Callot, a Baroque work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This image shows four small scenes carved into a metal plate. Each scene is inside a round frame with text above it. The top left has a robed woman standing tall, with clouds and small figures around her. The top right shows a man in armor holding a sword, with kids watching. The bottom left is a busy crowd around a tall building, with people pointing and kneeling. The bottom right has a skinny man standing on a tall column, with others looking up at him. These images were made by pressing ink onto paper using a sharp tool. The lines are thin but full of detail, showing how the artist worked carefully. Look up etching to see how this technique works.
Jacques Callot was a baroque printmaker and draftsman from the Duchy of Lorraine.
