This engraving by Jan Caspar Philips, created between 1733 and 1734, depicts scenes from the life of Saint Paul. The work, titled "Scènes uit het leven van Paulus," features six distinct scenes, each enclosed within an elaborate frame. The scenes, likely from the biblical book of Acts, are arranged in a grid with a central panel depicting Paul’s conversion. The work is a testament to the popularity of biblical narratives in 18th century Dutch art and can be found in the Rijksmuseum.
