Martyrdom of Saint John the Evangelist - Stefan Lochner

The sacred pain depicted: the Martyrdom of Saint John the Evangelist by Stefan Lochner
This painting features a solemn composition where the figure of the saint occupies the foreground, framed by shades of gold and red that emphasize the spiritual drama. The palette, subtly contrasted, combines delicate flesh tones with luminous draperies, while the precision of the line evokes a Gothic mastery tinged with humanism. The scene exudes a contemplative and poignant atmosphere, between pain and redemption, where ornamental details attract the eye without diverting from the central emotion. The technique reveals a composed craftsmanship, conducive to an intimate and prolonged reading.
