Donatello began the sculpture in 1410. With a height of 210 cm, St John the Evangelist is represented in marble. He's seated and for a bearded older man appears to have a solid frame. His right hand rests on his thigh, and the left hand rests on a book. He seems to be barefoot. The sculpture combines Roman style and early naturalism. Donatello finished the statue in 1411.
