One of West's designs for the trompe l'oeil portraits of the 12 saints in the clerestory of the Chapel of Greenwich Hospital, the final versions being executed by Biagio Rebecca. This is numerically the first of the set of 16 individual portraits (including those of the prophets Daniel, Zachariah, Micah and Malachi but excluding the roundel and oval biblical-story designs that follow on from PAH3946). Those of which there are at present (June 2017) some electronic images from monochrome glass negatives taken by Philibert Jacques Melotte in the period 1908-38, while working as a computer/ assistant at the Royal Observatory, are as follows (with the Melotte image of the present one being N64399):-
