St. Mansuetus; Sts. Serapia and Erasma; Moses; St. Bertin, Abbot is a 1634 ink by Jacques Callot, a Baroque work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This image is a collection of four etchings, each featuring a religious figure. The top left etching depicts St. Mansuetus, while the top right shows Sts. Serapia and Erasma. The bottom left etching portrays Moses, and the bottom right features St. Bertin, Abbot. Each etching is framed by a circle, with the figure's name written above it. The etchings are rendered in a detailed and intricate style, with fine lines and shading that give the figures depth and texture. The backgrounds of the etchings are simple, with minimal detail, which helps to focus attention on the figures themselves. The etchings are characteristic of the Baroque style, with its emphasis on dramatic lighting and intense emotions.
