Description:

The painting features a full-length portrait of a male figure, identified as Saint James the Apostle, standing in a dynamic pose. He has dark hair and a beard, and a subtle halo encircles his head. He wears a red tunic, partially covered by a flowing cream or off-white cloak that drapes around his body. His left arm is bent, holding an open book, while his right arm is extended outwards, palm slightly open, in a gesture of address or blessing. The setting appears to be a rugged outdoor landscape. To the saint's right (viewer's left), the sky is dark and stormy, with dramatic clouds and a faint, ethereal figure of a horse and rider in the distance, possibly symbolizing his role as "Matamoros" (Moor-slayer). To his left (viewer's right), the ground is more stable, with elements that allude to his life and martyrdom. These include a helmet, a shield, a sword, and what appears to be a pilgrim's staff or cross, along with a white cloth marked with a red cross, possibly representing the Cross of Saint James. A bare tree trunk rises behind these objects. The ground is uneven, composed of earthy tones. The overall impression is one of solemnity and spiritual gravitas, hinting at both the saint's divine connection and his earthly struggles.
