St. Sulpicius; St. Aldegondes; St. Sabina; The Calling of St. Mark is a 1634 ink by Jacques Callot, a Baroque work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This set of four etchings shows religious scenes in oval frames. The top left depicts a bishop with a group of people, while the top right shows a woman holding a palm branch. The bottom left has a woman kneeling by a tomb, and the bottom right shows a crowd outside a building with a dome. These images are part of a series about saints. The artist used fine lines to create detailed textures, like fabric and stone. Look up etching to see how artists like Callot made these sharp prints.
Jacques Callot was a baroque printmaker and draftsman from the Duchy of Lorraine.
