About the piece
Created in 1613 by Abraham Bloemaert, this masterwork captures the Four Evangelists—Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John—in a moment of intense study and transcription. The painting is a hallmark of the Utrecht Caravaggisti style, utilizing dramatic chiaroscuro to highlight the figures and their traditional symbolic companions: the ox, lion, eagle, and angel.
