Sa main droite est appuïée sur sa poitrine, et de la gauche il semble se déffendre de la question que lui fait une Servante qui l'envisage avec attention a la clarté d'une lumière qu'elle tient entre ses doigts. Un Soldat armé de toutes pièces assis près du foÿer et dont le Casque et l'epée sont posés devant lui tient dans ses mains une grosse Cruche et cefse de boire pour écouter la réponce de l'apotre qu'il regarde attentivement. On apperçoit dèrierre lui un autre Soldat deboust appuÿé sur son Epée; il est aufsi armé de toutes pieces, et porte la même attention sur St. pierre. Ces quatre figures sont de grandeur de nature. Au haut du tableau on voit a droite sur un plan plus éloigné jesus avec deux Soldats, dont un lui tient les mains liées derrière le dos; Il est deboust devant trois juges Coëffés de turbans. L'effet étonnant de ce morceau qui ne reçoit la lumière que de la Chandelle qui est entre les doigts de la Servante,. L'espression, la couleur vigoureuse et la fierté de la touche, le mettent au rang des plus Capitaux de ce maître. Largeur 5. pieds 1. pouce, sur 4. pieds 8. pouces de haut’)

Licensing[edit]

This is a faithful photographic reproduction of a two-dimensional, public domain work of art. The work of art itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

The author died in 1669, so this work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 100 years or fewer.

This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

This file has been identified as being free of known restrictions under copyright law, including all related and neighboring rights.
The official position taken by the Wikimedia Foundation is that "faithful reproductions of two-dimensional public domain works of art are public domain".
This photographic reproduction is therefore also considered to be in the public domain in the United States. In other jurisdictions, re-use of this content may be restricted; see Reuse of PD-Art photographs for details.
