Who is depicted in this woodcut? 4002-02-01-02-00_files/i0130000.jpg a. st. mark, patron saint of travelers b. st. christopher, patron saint of travelers c. st. paul, patron saint of travelers d. st. travis, patron saint of children

I believe the correct answer is: St. Christopher, patron saint of travelers.

 

     Saint Christopher is widely known as the patron of the travelers, belief influenced by the legend, according to which, St. Christopher carried the unknown child across the river, before unrevealing himself as a Jesus Christ. This legend also influenced the depictions of St. Christopher in the woodcuts, from which the earliest known woodcut is hand colored, dating from 1423, Buxheim and the best known is Albrecht Dürer’s dating 1511
