Christus verschijnt als tuinman aan Maria Magdalena 1696 - 1727

"Christus verschijnt als tuinman aan Maria Magdalena" (Christ Appears as a Gardener to Mary Magdalene), an etching by Dutch artist Matthijs Pool (1676–1740) depicts a scene from the Bible. The print, created between 1696 and 1727, shows Christ in the guise of a gardener, greeting Mary Magdalene. The drawing style of the etching reflects the Baroque period with its dramatic composition and use of light and shadow. The work, now part of the Rijksmuseum collection, is a testament to Pool's skill in capturing the dramatic tension of the moment.
