"Jongen en putti rond een altaar met de Bijbel" (Boy and Putti Around an Altar with the Bible) is an etching by Dutch artist Reinier Vinkeles, created between 1751 and 1816. The scene depicts a young man standing before an altar with a book, likely the Bible. Putti (cherubic figures) surround the figure, some playing musical instruments, suggesting a celebration of religious devotion. The work is a testament to Vinkeles' skill as a printmaker and demonstrates the religious fervor of the time. The piece is currently located in the Rijksmuseum, Netherlands.
