St John the Evangelist

1445-50
Oil on panel, 93 x 55 cm
Private collection

This panel representing St John the Evangelist, together with three others representing St Vincent Ferrer, St John the Baptist and St Bernard, once probably belonged to a larger altarpiece. St John the Evangelist and St John the Baptist are depicted in an idealized landscape setting, while the figures of St Vincent Ferrer and St Bernardino are positioned on a squared marble floor, with a parapet behind.
