The New Testament offers little if any information about the physical appearance of Paul, but several descriptions can be found in apocryphal texts. In the Acts of Paul [241] he is described as "A man of small stature, with a bald head and crooked legs, in a good state of body, with eyebrows meeting and nose somewhat hooked". [242]
Famous works depicting the apostles include Leonardo da Vinci's The Last Supper (c.1495–1498), The Four Apostles (1526) by Albrecht Dürer, Incredulity of Saint Thomas (c.1601–1602) by Caravaggio, and Self-Portrait as the Apostle Paul (1661) by Rembrandt.
Self-portrait as the Apostle Paul (Dutch: Zelfportret als de apostel Paulus) is one of over 40 painted self-portraits by Rembrandt, painted in 1661 by the Dutch artist Rembrandt. It is now in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
