St. Maria Gaudioru; St. Cladius; St. Norbert; St. Robert is a 1634 ink by Jacques Callot, a Baroque work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This painting is a collection of four etchings, each depicting a different saint. The top left etching shows St. Maria Gaudioru, while the top right etching features St. Cladius. The bottom left etching portrays St. Norbert, and the bottom right etching shows St. Robert. Each etching is framed by an oval border, with the saint's name written above and a number below. The etchings are rendered in a detailed and intricate style, with fine lines and shading that give the images depth and texture. The saints are depicted in various poses and settings, with some standing and others kneeling or seated. The painting is a beautiful example of Baroque art, with its use of etching and drypoint techniques creating a sense of drama and emotion.
