Woodcut of a bearded pilgrim leaning on a staff beside a winged angel, framed by an arch and columns, with a tree behind.

Saint Roch and an angel. Woodcut, c. 1518.

A black-and-white woodcut shows a bearded man in a long robe and cap leaning on a staff, while a winged angel in a flowing garment stands beside him under a Renaissance arch with classical columns. A small bundle of cloth and a tree appear in the background, and the fine parallel hatching gives the print its texture.
