At 95, John was exiled on the island of Patmos by the Emperor Domitian. It was during this exile that will write the book of the Apocalypse. John is dressed in red, as is the tradition, and is accompanied by the eagle symbol. Behind him lies a Flemish landscape with bluish hues characteristic sixteenth siècle.L'artiste represented the moment when John is about to drink the poison contained in the cup which comes a dragon. The poison will have no effect. This iconography is unusual. The representation of St. John on Patmos usually shows the time of writing the Holy Book (Hieronymus Bosch, "John the Evangelist in Patmos", Berlin, Gemäldegalerie) Here, the look of Jean turned to the right. The saint made a sign of blessing seems to follow his eyes, being directed to the cut. We can imagine that this panel was originally part of the altarpiece. Moreover, it is this feature that has Saint John on Patmos painted by Hans Memling ( "Triptych", Hôpital Saint-Jean de Bruges). The narrow format, stretched in height, the panel could this hypothesis.

A photograph of the painting is preserved in the archives of the Brunner Gallery. In the early twentieth century, the painting was in the collection of Charles Vincent Ocampo, who donated it, subject to usufruct, to the City of Paris in 1931. He renounced the usufruct in 1942.
