**Saint Mark the Evangelist (1478)**
In this exquisite oil on panel painting from 15th century Germany, Saint Mark the Evangelist is depicted in a serene and contemplative pose. Created by renowned artist Gabriel Malesskircher, this masterpiece showcases the saint's devotion to his sacred duty as one of Jesus' twelve apostles.
Seated comfortably on a simple bench, Saint Mark holds an open book - likely representing the Gospel of Mark which he wrote - while gazing upward with a gentle expression. His halo and ornate robes signify his sainthood and connection to Christianity. A majestic lion, symbolizing courage and strength, lies at his feet.
This stunning artwork not only celebrates the life and legacy of Saint Mark but also reflects the artistic heritage of medieval Germany during the 15th century. The Museo Nacional Thyssen-Bornemisza in Madrid proudly houses this treasure from Heritage Images' collection.
