This etching by Frederick Bloemaert depicts Saint Radboud, the first bishop of Utrecht, standing in a landscape, holding a crosier and a book. The artwork was created before 1650, and it is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam. The detailed depiction of Saint Radboud's robes and the dramatic landscape setting are characteristic of Bloemaert's artistic style, known for its realism and attention to detail. This artwork is a fascinating example of Dutch religious art, capturing the veneration of a significant figure in the history of the Catholic Church.
