Vormsel (rechter deel) 1633 - 1700

"Vormsel (rechter deel)" is an etching created by Jean Pesne, a prominent French artist, between 1633 and 1700. The artwork, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, depicts a scene of religious significance, likely a confirmation ceremony. The composition features multiple figures dressed in flowing robes, gathered around a table, with a central figure performing a ritualistic act. Pesne's attention to detail and the use of light and shadow create a sense of solemnity and reverence. The etching's dimensions, 611 mm in height and 481 mm in width, allow for a comprehensive and detailed portrayal of the scene. "Vormsel (rechter deel)" showcases Pesne's mastery in etching and his skill in capturing the atmosphere and solemnity of religious rituals.
