"St. John at Patmos" (1515) is a notable work by the German Renaissance artist Hans Baldung Grien, who was a prominent figure in the Northern Renaissance and a close contemporary of Albrecht Dürer. This artwork is a woodcut, a medium that Baldung Grien, like many of his contemporaries, used to great effect to disseminate images with religious and moral themes. The woodcut depicts the Apostle John on the island of Patmos, where, according to Christian tradition, he wrote the Book of Revelation.

In the woodcut, St. John is typically shown in a moment of divine inspiration or contemplation, often accompanied by an eagle, which is his traditional symbol and sometimes serves as a representation of the evangelist's lofty inspiration. The work is characterized by its intricate line work and dynamic composition, hallmarks of Baldung Grien's style, which often combined elements of the Gothic with an emerging Renaissance sensibility.

The year 1515 places this work in the middle period of Baldung Grien's career, a time when he was establishing himself as a master in his own right after his apprenticeship with Dürer. "St. John at Patmos" reflects the religious upheavals of the time, as well as the artist's personal interest in the mystical and the supernatural, themes that recur throughout his oeuvre.

As with many of Baldung Grien's prints, "St. John at Patmos" would have been widely circulated, contributing to the artist's reputation and the spread of Renaissance ideas beyond the confines of Italy. The woodcut is an important piece for understanding the transmission of iconography and stylistic elements in the early 16th century, as well as the role of prints in the period's visual culture.

Today, "St. John at Patmos" is studied not only for its artistic merit but also for its cultural and historical significance. It remains an exemplary piece of Baldung Grien's graphic work and a testament to the enduring power of religious imagery in the art of the Northern Renaissance.
