"St. Philip from Christ and the Apostles" is a woodcut print created by the German Renaissance artist Hans Baldung in 1519. The image depicts St. Philip, an apostle of Jesus, holding a book and a staff. He is depicted in a realistic and detailed style, with a focus on the intricate folds of his clothing and the textures of his skin. Baldung's work is characterized by its dramatic use of light and shadow, which lends a sense of depth and realism to the image. This print is part of a larger series of woodcuts depicting the apostles of Jesus, which are notable for their individuality and distinctive personalities. The work is housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, NY.
