This 1703 engraving by Dutch artist Romeyn de Hooghe is the title page for a two-volume book depicting scenes from both the Old and New Testaments. It depicts a central figure representing divine inspiration with a cloud above radiating light. The design includes a range of figures, including angels and men, all in a dramatic setting reminiscent of the Baroque style. This title page was originally part of an illustrated book printed in Amsterdam, now at the Rijksmuseum. De Hooghe, a prominent artist of the 17th century, was renowned for his engravings and political cartoons.
