The Calling of Saints Peter and Andrew; Initial D: Saint Andrew; Initial Q: Saint Peter, between about 1389 and 1400. Additional Info:As Saint Andrew and Saint Peter cast their nets into the Sea of Galilee, Jesus stands on the shore, calling them to follow him and become fishers of men. The two apostles turn towards Jesus with expressions of awe. Although the boat continues to glide toward the shore, Peter has already dropped his oar and folded his hands in prayer. Andrew, standing behind him, still holds his net, but his eyes are on Jesus. Below the miniature, Andrew appears in the initial D , for Dominus (God), with the cross upon which he was crucified. Below, Saint Peter appears in the initial Q with his attribute, the key to heaven.
