Created in the early 13th century, this piece is a testament to the exquisite craftsmanship of that era. The painting depicts Saint John the Evangelist, known for his role as one of Jesus' disciples and authorship of the Gospel of John, dictating his teachings in Nicomedia, Turkey. The artist skillfully employed tempera colors and gold leaf on parchment to bring this scene to life.
