Historical and Artistic Description and Evaluation
The painting depicts the Evangelist John in a pose of intense mystical inspiration, with his face turned upward and immersed in a warm light emerging from a dark background. The composition, of strong emotional impact, references Rubensian models in terms of dynamics, chromatic quality, and the anatomical rendering of the flesh tone. The work is attributed to a high-level workshop production from the Antwerp circle, with evident stylistic affinities.
attributed to or associated with Jacob Jordaens' sphere
