"Elisa, Jona en Obadja" is a 1585 engraving by Flemish artist Jan (I) Snellinck, housed in the Rijksmuseum. It depicts three biblical figures: Elisha, Jonah, and Obadiah. Each figure is depicted in a separate scene, with Elisha raising a hand to the heavens, Jonah being swallowed by a sea monster, and Obadiah carrying a basket of bread. The engraving's detailed rendering of the figures and their surroundings showcases Snellinck's mastery of this artistic technique.
