F. de Louvement's "The Holy Trinity" (1650-1690) is a black and white etching depicting a complex and powerful scene of the Holy Trinity. At the center, a lifeless Christ lies supported by two angels, while God the Father sits above in a cloud-filled sky. The Holy Spirit, represented by a dove, hovers between them. Multiple angels surround the figures, creating a sense of both heavenly presence and mourning. The etching's detailed rendering, dramatic composition, and masterful use of light and shadow conveys the profound religious significance of the Trinity. The artwork currently resides in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
