Door het geloof wordt de mens herboren 1550

This 1550 engraving by Dirck Volckertsz Coornhert, titled "Door het geloof wordt de mens herboren" (Through faith man is reborn), depicts a nude youth holding a book. The youth's pose and the text "In homine sancto renato apparet in diu fides" (In the holy man reborn appears true faith) suggest the theme of religious faith and rebirth. The piece, measuring 142 mm by 218 mm, is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum. This engraving, a testament to Coornhert's artistic skills, showcases the Renaissance preoccupation with human anatomy and a clear yet stylized portrayal of the subject.
