The Calling of Peter and Andrew
(Mark 1: 16–18)

'Jesus was walking by the shore of the Sea of Galilee when he saw Simon [Peter] and his brother Andrew on the lake at work with a casting-net; for they were fishermen. Jesus said to them, "Come with me, and I will make you fishers of men."' The brothers are in their boat, drawing in a net, or one or both of them kneel on the shore at the feet of Christ. Sometimes a crowd of onlookers are present, recalling the time when Christ preached to the multitude at the lakeside.
