Priest Carrying the Holy Sacrament of the Eucharist

Abraham Bosse or Jacques Callot

National Gallery of Art

The image depicts a full-length side view of a figure standing in profile facing to the left. The person has a long cloak or robe that drapes down to their feet, with detailed vertical lines suggesting the texture of the garment. The person's head is covered with a hat or headpiece, and their facial features are subtle but suggest a profile view. The individual carries an object in their right hand, possibly a decorated staff or scepter with a complex, ornate top. The background is plain.
