Painting Description
"St. Philip" is a copper engraving created by the prominent German artist Albrecht Dürer in 152. This piece was part of his later work, created during the Northern Renaissance, a period marked by upheavals in the church, trade, and technology. "St. Philip" presents a carefully crafted depiction of the apostle Philip, one of the twelve apostles of Jesus according to the New. The image portrays him in half-length profile with meticulous attention to detail, a characteristic associated with Dürer.
The engraving's size is relatively modest, measuring 122 x 75 mm. Despite its small scale, it offers an intimate portrait of St. Philip, depicting him with a long beard, wearing a robe, and carrying a cross, the symbol of his martyrdom. Dürer employed his famous technical skills in engraving, with an intricate use of line and shadow to project a three-dimensional figure onto the two-dimensional surface, adding a remarkable level of realism.
"St. Philip" was part of a wider series of apostle engravings by Dürer, which is considered one of his masterful narrative series. Each engraving served to depict these religious figures with a deep sense of individual character and emotion that reflects both the religious sentiment of the time and Dürer's unique observational skills. These engravings remain some of the most compelling and beautifully rendered works by Dürer, testaments to his mastery of the medium and his profound influence on European art.
