De heilige Andreas 1620 - 1692

"De heilige Andreas" is a 17th century etching by Italian artist Pietro del Po. The etching depicts Saint Andrew, one of the twelve apostles, holding a cross in a dramatic pose. The artwork uses detailed hatching and shading techniques to create a realistic representation of Saint Andrew and his drapery, reflecting a tradition of realistic representation in Baroque art. This etching likely served as a model for other artists and is a fine example of Pietro del Po's artistic skill.
