This etching, "Christus met de Samaritaanse vrouw bij een waterput" (Christ with the Samaritan woman at a well) by Sébastien Leclerc I, depicts a scene from the Gospel of John. The artwork, dated 1647 - 1714, shows Jesus sitting by a well and speaking to a woman, while she draws water. The detailed etching captures the scene's religious context and features delicate lines to portray the figures and setting. The inscription at the bottom, "qui bibit ex aqua quam et dabo munquam sitiet" (whoever drinks from the water I give will never thirst), emphasizes the theme of spiritual salvation and the importance of faith.
