This engraving, created by Johann Sadeler I in 1600, depicts Saint Landelin as a hermit. The print showcases the saint kneeling in prayer with a mountainous landscape as the backdrop. In the distance, we see a town and a church, highlighting the life of piety and solitude that Landelin chose to embrace. The image uses chiaroscuro to emphasize the contrast between light and dark, creating a sense of depth and drama in the composition. The artwork is a fine example of Northern Renaissance engraving, a style known for its intricate details and masterful depiction of perspective.
