97. ST. BARTHOLOMEW
B.47 O.97 H.Gy) 7?.251 M.g6 K.yg ^.(94) Bw.86 Engraving
Signature: monogram below the date on a tablet leaning against the tree to left.
Date: 1523.
Drawing: the drawing at Vienna, L.581, in reverse, agrees with this engraving in
most respects, but the Apostle has a different attribute, a staff left incomplete at the

drawings for other Apostles of the same series, which were not engraved. The absence
of a nimbus is unusual, and distinguishes this plate and the following from the earlier
members of the set of Apostles (Nos. 76 and 77),
