Note du spécialiste

This large engraving by Jacob Matham, pupil and stepson of Hendrick Goltzius, is possibly after a lost pen drawing by the latter. The model for the face of the Saint may have been Maximilian Laignier, to whom this print is dedicated, or Jan Govertsz. van der Aar, merchant and collector from Haarlem, and friend of Goltzius's.
