De Mens geconfronteerd met Mozes en de heerschappij van de Zonde 1546 - 1562

"De Mens geconfronteerd met Mozes en de heerschappij van de Zonde" is a print from 1546 - 1562 by Frans Huys. It is housed at the Rijksmuseum. The print depicts two scenes separated by columns: on the left, Moses presents a naked man, representing mankind, to a woman symbolizing the Law; on the right, Sin rules over a chained man. The print is an allegory of the relationship between humanity and divine law, emphasizing the power of sin and the need for redemption. This work exemplifies Huys’ mastery of Renaissance engraving techniques and use of symbolism to portray moral and theological themes.
