Taferelen uit het Oude Testament 1776 - 1813

This series of etchings by Christoffel van (IV) Sichem, titled "Taferelen uit het Oude Testament," portrays eight scenes from the Old Testament. The small size and simple yet detailed style are characteristic of Dutch engravings from the 17th century. The individual scenes depict pivotal moments in the biblical narrative, intended for a general audience to aid in their understanding of the sacred text. These engravings, dated 1776-1813, were likely part of a larger publication, possibly a devotional book or a series of prints for home display.
