Brede en de smalle weg 1704

"Brede en de smalle weg" (The Wide and the Narrow Way) is an etching by Cornelis Huyberts, a Dutch artist who was active in the early 18th century. The etching is a visual allegory of the choice between good and evil, depicting two paths that lead to very different destinations. The narrow path, representing a virtuous life, leads to heaven, while the wide path, representing a life of sin, leads to hell. The engraving, created in 1704, highlights the moral dilemmas and choices faced by individuals, reflecting the religious and moral themes prevalent in Dutch art during the Baroque era.
