"Saint John The Evangelist" is a notable painting by the Dutch Golden Age artist Salomon de Bray, created in 1651. This work exemplifies de Bray's mastery in capturing the human form and his deep engagement with religious themes, which were prevalent in his oeuvre. Salomon de Bray, born in 1597 in Amsterdam, was a prominent figure in the Haarlem school of painting, known for his contributions to both portraiture and historical subjects.

The painting depicts Saint John the Evangelist, one of the twelve apostles of Jesus and the reputed author of the Gospel of John, the Epistles of John, and the Book of Revelation. In this work, de Bray portrays Saint John with a serene and contemplative expression, emphasizing his role as a visionary and a spiritual leader. The saint is often depicted with his traditional attributes, such as the eagle, symbolizing his high-soaring theological insights, and a book or scroll, representing his contributions to the New Testament.

De Bray's use of light and shadow in "Saint John The Evangelist" is particularly striking, creating a dramatic yet intimate atmosphere that draws the viewer into the spiritual depth of the subject. The artist's meticulous attention to detail is evident in the rendering of textures, from the softness of the saint's robes to the intricate features of his face. This painting not only reflects de Bray's technical skill but also his ability to convey profound religious sentiment through his art.

"Saint John The Evangelist" is a testament to Salomon de Bray's artistic legacy and his significant role in the Dutch Golden Age. The painting is housed in the collection of the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, where it continues to be admired for its artistic and historical significance.
