"Hérodias met het hoofd van Johannes de Doper" (Herodias with the Head of John the Baptist) is a 1878 etching by Paul Rouffio, a French artist known for his historical and biblical subjects. The artwork depicts Herodias, the wife of Herod Antipas, receiving the severed head of John the Baptist. Rouffio captures the dramatic tension of the moment, with Herodias's expression and the presence of the severed head. The etching, measuring 239 mm by 274 mm, is a powerful testament to Rouffio's skill in depicting historical events.
