The apostle Saint Simon the Zealot aka Simon the Canaanite or Simon the Canaanean. Born and died in the 1st century AD. His identifying attribute, as in this picture, is a saw which supports one of several stories about his death - that he was sawn in half. After a work by Cornelis van Caukercken from a painting by Anthony van Dyck.
