Saint Veronica between Saints Peter and Paul

Albrecht Dürer

National Gallery of Art

Three figures with halos are depicted in close proximity, all in robes. The central figure is a woman holding a cloth displaying a man's face with a crown of thorns, flanked by two men with distinct facial hair. The woman and one of the men carry symbolic items. The figures are within an indoor setting with wooden textures in the background. An inscription dated 1510 is above the central figure and there is an artist mark at the bottom.
