Heiligen Johannes en Petrus 1502 - 1532

"Heiligen Johannes en Petrus" (Saint John and Peter) is an etching by Ugo da Carpi from 1502 - 1532. The etching, depicting a scene from the Bible, shows the two apostles, John and Peter, in conversation, perhaps discussing their recent encounters with Jesus. The artwork exemplifies da Carpi's mastery of the chiaroscuro technique, creating a dramatic play of light and shadow that enhances the sense of depth and realism in the figures. The use of fine lines and subtle details adds to the realism and meticulousness of the artwork, which is a characteristic of da Carpi's style.
