Saint James the Greater

About this work

This is a black-and-white drawing of a man from behind, holding a long staff. His hair is wild, and he’s wearing a loose robe that flows as he walks. The ground looks rocky, with a few small plants near his feet. The artist used sharp lines to show the folds in his clothes and the texture of his hair. This style was common in Renaissance art, where details like fabric and light were key. Next, look up etching to see how this print was made.
