St. Martin; St. Tryphon and Companions; St. Renatus; St. Didacus is a 1634 ink by Jacques Callot, a Baroque work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This print shows four small scenes in oval frames. Top left: a man in armor hands a cloak to a beggar. Top right: a soldier on horseback talks to a kneeling man. Bottom left: a robed figure stands on a platform, preaching to a crowd. Bottom right: a saint holds a book, with people gathered nearby. The lines are sharp and detailed, made by scratching into metal plates. This is how the artist created the image. Look up etching to see how it works.
Jacques Callot was a baroque printmaker and draftsman from the Duchy of Lorraine.
