Der heilige Jakobus der Ältere

Lucas Cranach der Ältere, um 1510–1515

The image shows a man standing upright. He is facing forward, holding a staff with his right hand and a string of beads with his left hand. The man has a beard and wavy hair flowing from under a large, round hat with a band. He wears a long robe that reaches his ankles, leaving his feet bare. Draped around his shoulders is a large cloak or mantle. The pattern on his clothing suggests richness in texture. The background contains floral and vine motifs on either side, framing the figure. Above him is text that reads "S. Jacob der Großer." The ground is depicted with small rocks and earth textures.
