São João em Patmos

ca. 1511
On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 607
Um pintor, gravador e designer de vitrais de grande originalidade, Baldung procedia de uma família de advogados e médicos. Com 18 anos entrou para a oficina de Dürer, em Nuremberg. Este quadro era originalmente parte de um tríptico que representa o apóstolo João na ilha de Patmos, compondo o livro do Apocalipse; a águia representa o seu símbolo. O retábulo foi encomendado pela Ordem de São João de Jerusalém em Grünen Wörth, perto de Estrasburgo, e é mencionado em um documento de aproximadamente 1510–1511, cerca de cinco anos depois que Baldung deixou de trabalhar com Dürer.
