Seth met zijn vrouw en kinderen 1530

“Seth met zijn vrouw en kinderen” (Seth with his wife and children) is an anonymous woodcut from 1530. It depicts Seth, his wife, and their three children, possibly symbolizing a family's life or the biblical story of Seth, the third son of Adam and Eve. The artwork, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a prime example of the detailed and expressive style of woodcut printing popular in the 16th century. The artist's use of intricate lines and hatching creates a sense of depth and texture, bringing the figures to life in this small, but powerful piece.
