Wonderfully unhinged painting of by an unknown Flemish artist of the 17th century with St. James, dressed as a pilgrim, in a magic battle with the sorcerer Hermogenes. Monsters, demons, monkeys, trapeze acts, fakes Jameses…what else could you want in a painting? #earlymodern #arthistory

Couldn’t refuse the mini pilgrimage to check out the new(ish) exhibition at the @britishlibrary.bsky.social.
Personal highlights obviously included Christine de Pizan’s Harley MS 4431 and this lovely print of the Alexiad, along with this fish-frog (or fish-toad?) amalgam in it’s rather dapper cape.
