About Artwork: (About 1500) "A deer cowers in the protective arms of an elderly man; an arrow sticks out of his hand, which rests on the deer’s back. A richly dressed man and a cleric kneel before him; a group of hunters crowd behind them. The wounded man is Saint Giles, a popular French saint who was mistakenly shot when hunters pursued his tame deer. We don't know who the artist was, but we do know he had an unusual technique. A great deal of underdrawing (the preliminary outlining of a composition) is visible to the naked eye, with technical analysis showing more. He made changes throughout, in the underdrawing and while painting. The archer was not drawn in at all but painted over a horse’s head; a red circle in Giles’s shoulder may have been the first idea for his wound. Clearly this artist was accustomed to working out his ideas on panel and making alterations at every stage of producing the work." - (National Gallery of Art, London)
