This is a black and white etching by Italian artist Giovanni Marco Pitteri, depicting Saint Peter, one of the twelve Apostles of Jesus. The etching, in a realistic style, shows Saint Peter gazing upwards with a deeply contemplative expression. The viewer can see the detailed lines of Saint Peter’s face, beard, and clothing, capturing a moment of solemn devotion. This artwork is housed in the Art Institute of Chicago and is a prime example of the artist's skills in etching and depiction of religious figures.
