This engraving, *Landschap met het offeren van de ram door Abraham en Isaak*, by Pieter van der (I) Borcht depicts the biblical story of Abraham's sacrifice of Isaac. The scene is set in a sprawling landscape with a distant cityscape and a prominent mountain range. Abraham kneels near an altar with a ram, while an angel appears above. The engraving, created between 1582 and 1613, is a testament to Borcht's mastery of landscape and detailed figural depiction. This artwork is now part of the Rijksmuseum collection in Amsterdam.
