From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Martyrdom of Saint Andrew is a 1675-1682 oil on canvas painting by Murillo, now in the Museo del Prado. [1]

Its tone is heavily influenced by the work of Peter Paul Rubens, particularly his own depiction of the same subject, [2] and de Ribera's The Martyrdom of Saint Philip. [3]
