About this work
Four scenes from the life of Ignatius of Loyola. Ignatius travels to the Holy Land. He visits the Mount of Olives and the tomb of Christ (center). There he finds the footprints of Christ. He is then forcibly led away by a guard and receives a vision of Christ (left). In the background to the right, Loyola departs from the Holy Land on a small ship. The large ship that he refuses to take is wrecked in a storm. The print has Latin inscriptions referring to the scenes in the print. The print is part of a fifteen-part series on the life of Ignatius of Loyola.
