St. Patrick; St. Gertrude; St. Gabriel, Archangel; St. Edward is a 1634 ink by Jacques Callot, a Baroque work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This image is a collection of four oval-shaped etchings, each depicting a different saint. The top left etching shows St. Patrick standing on a rocky shore, with birds flying around him. The top right etching depicts St. Gertrude kneeling on the shore, surrounded by fish and other sea creatures. The bottom left etching features St. Gabriel, Archangel, standing on a cloud with wings spread wide. The bottom right etching shows St. Edward, who appears to be in the midst of a dramatic scene with several people. One interesting detail is the use of different backgrounds and settings for each saint, which adds to the overall visual interest of the image. The etchings are rendered in a detailed and realistic style, with careful attention to texture and shading. For more information on the artist who created this work, look up Callot, Jacques.
Jacques Callot was a baroque printmaker and draftsman from the Duchy of Lorraine.
