The image depicts Saint Paul, one of Jesus Christ's twelve apostles and a prominent figure in Christianity. Known for his unwavering loyalty to his faith and tireless efforts to spread the teachings of Jesus, Saint Paul is portrayed here with great reverence and devotion. Elsheimer's exquisite use of mannerism style brings depth and emotion to this portrayal.
