Saint Andrew

Sebald Beham

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a man standing and leaning on a diagonal cross made of two wooden beams, holding an open book. He has a long, bushy beard, short curly hair, and is wearing a robe with a cloak draped over his shoulders. He is barefoot on rocky ground, with two cylindrical objects hanging from his belt. In the background, there is a simple fence with twisted branches and small plants growing near it. The artwork is rendered in a monochrome style with intricate lines and shading.
