This small-scale engraving, titled "Discipelen wekken slapende Christus tijdens storm op Meer van Galilea" (Disciples Awaken Sleeping Christ During a Storm on the Sea of Galilee) by German artist Georg Pencz, depicts the biblical story of Jesus calming a storm on the Sea of Galilee. The scene shows Christ asleep in a boat as his disciples struggle against the turbulent waters, with an angel above. The finely detailed lines and powerful composition are characteristic of Pencz's work, demonstrating his skill in capturing both the drama of the story and the delicate beauty of the natural world. This engraving, created in the mid-16th century, showcases the popular subject matter of religious stories in Renaissance art.
