"Bijbelcitaat" is a delicate penmanship exercise created by the Dutch artist Gesina ter Borch in 1646. The work showcases a beautiful example of calligraphy, featuring elegant flourishes and a flowing script. Ter Borch, known for her refined and intricate style, demonstrates her mastery of the pen in this small-scale work, which is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum. The inscription likely draws from the Bible, adding a religious dimension to this graceful artwork.
