Saint Colomannus 1516 - 1518

This woodcut by Leonhard Beck, created between 1516 and 1518, depicts Saint Colomannus. The image portrays the saint standing in a landscape, a halo behind his head, and holding a crosier and a rope. There is a coat of arms on the lower left of the artwork, and a church can be seen in the distance. The woodcut was likely made for devotional purposes, allowing viewers to connect with the saint through this visual representation. The detailed depiction of the landscape, with its trees, hills, and buildings, provides a sense of realism and depth.
