This engraving by Theodor van (II) Merlen, titled "H. Norbert", depicts Saint Norbert, a Catholic saint, standing tall amidst a swirling cloud of cherubs. The saint holds a staff and a chalice while standing over figures bound in chains and shackles at the foot of a hill. The engraving, likely made in the 17th century, captures the saint’s iconic representation as a preacher of peace and a symbol of faith. This artwork, a classic example of religious engraving, emphasizes the power and divine authority of the saint.
