Scènes uit het Oude Testament 1850 - 1881

This 1850-1881 print by Dirk Noothoven van Goor, titled "Scènes uit het Oude Testament" (Scenes from the Old Testament), depicts six scenes from the Bible: Adam and Eve's expulsion from the Garden of Eden, the death of Abel, the sacrifice of Isaac, Noah's ark, the flood, and the Tower of Babel. Each scene is accompanied by text in Dutch explaining the biblical event. These prints were part of a larger series that aimed to educate children about the Old Testament. The style is typical of the 19th-century genre of religious illustration, with a focus on narrative and clear imagery. The artwork is notable for its bright colors and meticulous detail, which brings the biblical stories to life for young audiences.
