About the Item

Flemish school from the beginning of the 17th century (Circle of Martin DE VOS) Drawing Pen and wash 38 x 32 cm (58 x 52 cm with the frame) Inscription "Martin de Vos" Excellent condition We know an engraving by Martin de Vos in the opposite direction of our drawing which represents the same composition except for a few details. This is probably a drawing from this engraving. The very high general quality of the drawing and the wash, the age of the paper, dates probably from the 16th century. The style and the technique are very close to the drawings of Martin de Vos and this suggests an attribution to an artist in the circle of Martin de Vos probably in the late 16th century or early 17th century. The subject is known as part of the series of martyrdoms of saints, the best known of which is certainly the beheading of Saint Paul in Rome. Here it is the story of Saint James the Greater, one of Jesus' closest apostles along with Saint John and Saint Peter. His martyrdom is reported in the Acts of the Apostles in the Bible: "He (Herod) slew James, brother of John, with the sword" at the time of Peter's arrest. During his martyrdom, he was therefore beheaded just like Saint Paul.
