"Wonderbare spijziging" (meaning "Wonderful Nourishment") is an etching created by Jan van Somer sometime between 1655 and 1700. The piece depicts a scene with multiple figures, including a central figure seated with a young child standing next to them. Van Somer's print displays a dynamic composition and intricate detail in the depiction of clothing and facial expressions, characteristic of the Dutch Baroque style. The etching likely reflects a biblical story or allegory, as the title suggests a theme of sustenance and abundance.
