"Drie serafijnen in verschillende gedaanten" (Three Seraphim in different forms) is an etching by Dutch artist François van Bleyswijck, created between 1681 and 1746. The print depicts three angelic figures, each with unique and intricate wings, against a backdrop of radiating light. One seraph appears to be holding a celestial sphere, while the other two gaze upwards in adoration. This piece is a testament to van Bleyswijck's skill as a draftsman and engraver, showcasing his ability to capture intricate details and religious symbolism. The artwork is currently part of the Rijksmuseum collection in Amsterdam, offering a glimpse into Dutch art and religious imagery of the 17th and 18th centuries.
