"Het lyden van onzen heere en heyland Jesu Christi," created by Erven de Weduwe Jacobus van Egmont, is a detailed series of eight engravings showcasing scenes from the Passion of Christ. Dating from 1761 to 1804, the work is displayed at the Rijksmuseum, and its scenes are meticulously rendered in a graphic, illustrative style that would have been easily understood by the public in the 18th century.
