Plate 3: Saint Luke with his head turned in profile to the right, a book in each hand, a bull at his feet, from 'The four evangelists' 1541

This engraving by German Renaissance artist Sebald Beham depicts Saint Luke, one of the four Evangelists, from the artist’s series *The Four Evangelists* (1541). Saint Luke, traditionally associated with the ox, is shown with a book in each hand, while a bull lies at his feet. The engraving features intricate details, including the crosshatched lines that add texture and depth to the image. The figure of Saint Luke is depicted in profile with an emphasis on realism and naturalism, characteristic of Beham's style.
