This 16th century engraving, attributed to an anonymous artist, depicts Matthew, one of the twelve apostles of Jesus Christ, standing in a niche. The artwork is a fine example of the detailed engravings created during the Dutch Golden Age. The image showcases Matthew with a beard, wearing a robe, holding a purse and standing in a niche with a light source illuminating him from the left. It is part of the Rijksmuseum collection in Amsterdam.
