Etching of Saint Andrew tied to an X-shaped cross on a platform, with a crowd in a city street and light breaking through clouds above.

Martyrdom of the Apostle Andrew, Callot etching

An etching of a saint's martyrdom: a bound figure stretched on an X-shaped cross atop a platform, surrounded by soldiers and onlookers in a city street. Light breaks from clouds above, where a figure descends, and a robed figure watches at right.
