Isaak 1577

This engraving by Johann Sadeler I, titled "Isaak," from 1577, depicts the biblical patriarch Isaac. The artwork, currently located at the Rijksmuseum, showcases Sadeler's mastery of detail. Isaac, clad in a long robe and with a flowing beard, stands with his hand raised in a gesture of blessing. The background features a serene landscape, with a distant cityscape hinting at the human world beyond. This print is a fine example of 16th-century Northern Renaissance art, known for its precise and detailed execution.
