This small, detailed engraving titled *Pesachmaal* was created by Christoffel van (II) Sichem in 1628. The artwork depicts a scene of the Passover Seder meal. In the center of the image, we see figures gathered around a table, with a central figure holding a staff and a lamb. The scene is set in a room with a window overlooking a distant landscape, showcasing Sichem’s mastery of perspective and detailed depiction of everyday life. This work is considered a significant example of 17th-century Dutch art, offering a glimpse into the cultural and religious practices of the period.
