Countless Italian painters painted the subject matter. He was considered one of the first historiographers of the new Christian religion. He was associated with the Apostle Peter. His gospel consists of collections of miracle stories, controversy stories, parables, and a passion narrative. He founded the first church of Alexandria Egypt. Saint Mark is often depicted with a Lion. The winged Lion of Saint Mark is a symbol of Venice. The symbol also represents the Greek Orthodox Church of Alexandria. Vittore Carpaccio painted the Lion of Saint Mark. Venetian masters Titian and Tintoretto both created paintings of Saint Mark. Titian's St. Mark Enthroned and Tintoretto's Finding of the Body of Saint Mark were symbols of Venice. Andrea Mantegna also painted his own notable version of St Mark . St Mark's Basilica is one of the most important churches in Venice. The church stands as an emblem of Saint Mark and the traditional Greek Italian Byzantine style.

The painting is currently at the Benaki Museum in Athens Greece. The painting was a Gift from Damianos Kyriazis. (en)
