Apostles from Àger is a canvas painting created around the year 1100. It shows a group of apostles, a common religious theme in medieval art. The work was painted by the Master of Pedret, a name we use for an unknown artist active in the late 11th and early 12th centuries. It now hangs in the Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya in Barcelona, where visitors can see other pieces from the same period. Look for more paintings at the Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya.
