Prediking van Christus c. 1530

"Prediking van Christus" (c. 1530) is a woodcut by Lucas van Leyden, a prominent artist of the Northern Renaissance. The work depicts a scene of Jesus Christ preaching to a group of people. The composition is characterized by its tight framing and use of perspective to create depth. The vibrant colors and fine details, typical of van Leyden's style, are evident in the clothing, architecture, and expressions of the figures. This print, now part of the Rijksmuseum collection, highlights van Leyden's mastery of both religious subject matter and the technical aspects of woodcutting.
