Saint Philip

About this work

A halo surrounds his head, and he stands on a tiled floor. The saint's facial expression is serious, and his eyes are cast downward. The artist's use of cross-hatching creates a sense of depth and texture in the image. The level of detail in this engraving suggests a high level of skill on the part of the artist.
