Description: | Saint Mark points to an open book which rests on the head of the winged lion that identifies him, and which became the symbol of Venice, the city of which he is patron saint. This painting and images of the other three Evangelists in the Bowes Museum (B.M. 919; B.M. 920; B.M. 923) were probably part of an altarpiece. They have been attributed to Jusepe Leonardo, who worked mainly in Madrid under the influence of Vicente Carducho and Diego Velázquez. | Subjects: | religion (St Mark); animal (winged lion) | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Leonardo, Jusepe (Spanish painter and sculptor, 1601-before 1653) Æ | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8956... | Go to resource |
