St. Giles; St. Lupus; St. Anne; St. Nonnosus 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 depicts a robed figure with a deer at his feet, surrounded by trees. The top right shows a man in a doorway holding a large key, with people gathered around. The bottom left has a woman pointing toward a group of people near a building. The bottom right features a monk kneeling beside a bear in a rocky landscape. Each scene is labeled with a saint’s name and the month "Sept." The lines are precise and detailed, typical of a printmaking technique. Next, look up etching to see how artists like Callot created these sharp, layered images.
Jacques Callot was a baroque printmaker and draftsman from the Duchy of Lorraine.
