This drawing by Edward Burne-Jones, a prominent figure in the Pre-Raphaelite movement, depicts St. Mark the Evangelist, a central figure in Christian tradition. St. Mark is traditionally associated with the lion, which is depicted in the drawing as a winged creature, held by the saint in his right hand. The drawing, rendered in pen and ink, demonstrates Burne-Jones' signature style characterized by a focus on line and detailed depictions of figures and objects. This sketch, likely a preparatory study for a larger artwork, showcases the artist's meticulous approach to design and composition.
