"Monnik met engelen" is an etching created by Dutch artist Jacob Gole sometime between 1670 and 1724. The print depicts a monk gazing upwards as two cherubic angels with wings float above him. The etching, housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a small work measuring only 115 mm high and 90 mm wide. The piece is a fine example of Baroque era art and is characteristic of the period's focus on religious themes and the depiction of heavenly figures.
