This etching, "H. Augustinus" (1662-1681) by Dutch Baroque artist Alexander (II) Voet, depicts Saint Augustine instructing a young boy, likely representing humanity, about the Trinity. The intricate details of the saint's robes and the seascape background are characteristic of Voet's meticulous style. This print, housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a testament to the artist's skill in capturing both religious themes and the nuances of human emotion in the 17th century.
