An anonymous painting by the Osservanza Master shows this man recoiling in the midst of a bunch of dead trees. The earliest known painting of Michelangelo, done when Vasari says he was 13, is of this man floating above ships on the sea.  That painting was a copy of a Martin Schongauer woodcut that shows him staring at the viewer calmly despite being clubbed. This man is the subject of a Lisbon triptych whose center panel shows buildings burning in the background while demons participate in a Black Mass; that triptych is by Hieronymus Bosch, who did about 15 paintings of this man. The Isenheim Altarpiece was painted for a monastery named for this saint, who stands calmly on a pillar despite an approaching monster in the panel to the right of the Crucifixion scene. He is often depicted being attacked by fish-like demons. For 10 points, name this Christian saint whose "temptation" is a common artistic subject.
