Simon de Vos was a prolific Antwerp painter of interior scenes and of biblical subjects. He produced a fair number of high-quality religious scenes on copper, such as ours, for the art dealers Guillaume Forchondt I and II, who exported these works to Spain and to its colonies in the Americas.
Isidore the Farmer was helped in his work by angels, while he was praying. He lived circa 1100 and was made a saint in 1622: this simple man with an ordinary job had lived a life of holy kindness. In 1615 King Philip III of Spain was cured of a deadly disease when the relics of Isidore were brought to his sickbed.
