Vrouw in aanbidding voor een brandend hart 1715

"Vrouw in aanbidding voor een brandend hart" (1715) is an etching by Gerrit Lambrechtsz. The print depicts a woman in classical dress, gazing upwards towards a burning heart atop a column. Surrounding the woman are cherubs and a bird, while the background features trees and clouds. This allegorical image likely represents the offering of a soul to God, as indicated by the inscription on the plate below the figures. The use of classical motifs and the detailed rendering of the figures are characteristic of the Baroque style. The print is small in size, measuring only 141 mm in height and 84 mm in width. This etching is an example of a Baroque religious image in the Dutch tradition, featuring emblem-like imagery to convey a spiritual message.
