Judas verraadt Christus en krijgt dertig zilverlingen 1580 - 1600

Johann Sadeler I's "Judas verraadt Christus en krijgt dertig zilverlingen" (Judas Betrays Christ and Receives Thirty Pieces of Silver) is a small, finely detailed etching from the late 16th century. It depicts the dramatic moment from the Bible where Judas, one of Christ's disciples, agrees to betray his master for thirty pieces of silver. The etching, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, showcases Sadeler's mastery of linework and his ability to capture a moment of intense betrayal and spiritual turmoil. The small size of the print suggests its intended audience may have been collectors or individuals seeking religious devotionals in a portable format.
