St. Peter healing the lame Man 1556

Maarten van Heemskerck's "St. Peter Healing the Lame Man" (1556) is a detailed pen-and-ink drawing that depicts a scene from the New Testament. St. Peter, clad in flowing robes, extends his hand towards a lame man kneeling at his feet, while a crowd of onlookers gather around. Heemskerck's masterful draftsmanship is evident in the intricate details of the figures, the architectural setting, and the subtle nuances of light and shadow. This drawing, now housed at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, offers a glimpse into the artistic talent of the Dutch Renaissance master.
