"Het volk van Israel verdeeld tussen Tibni en Omri" is a 1569 etching by Philips Galle, depicting a scene from the Book of Kings in the Bible. The print shows the Israelites divided into two opposing armies, led by Tibni and Omri, respectively. The scene is set against a backdrop of ruined buildings, highlighting the chaos and destruction caused by the civil war. Galle's meticulous detail and use of light and shadow create a sense of drama and realism, making this etching a compelling example of 16th-century printmaking.
