"H. Antonius wordt verleid door de demonen" (Saint Anthony Tempted by the Demons) is a 1598 etching by Italian artist Antonio Tempesta. It depicts the story of Saint Anthony, a Christian hermit, who is tempted by demons in the desert. The scene is filled with grotesque creatures, representing the temptations of the flesh and the world. This artwork is a prime example of the Baroque style, with its dramatic composition, dynamic figures, and detailed rendering. The etching is held in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
