"Offer van Isaak" is a 16th century etching by Italian artist Antonio da Trento, depicting the biblical story of Abraham's sacrifice of Isaac. The print shows a dramatic scene where Abraham, holding a knife, prepares to sacrifice Isaac on an altar. The etching uses strong lines and shading to convey the emotional intensity of the moment. Da Trento's work is known for its dramatic and expressive style, often featuring religious subjects. This print is a good example of the artist's skill in capturing the human form and creating a powerful sense of emotion.
