"Religieuze allegorische voorstelling" (Religious allegorical representation) is an engraving created by Philippus Velijn between 1797 and 1836. The artwork, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, depicts a complex allegorical scene filled with religious figures and symbols, possibly related to the Last Judgement or other Christian themes. The composition is dominated by a large central panel showing a celestial event surrounded by smaller scenes within oval frames, creating a sense of depth and narrative complexity. Velijn's work exemplifies the intricate and symbolic nature of Dutch religious art in the late 18th and early 19th centuries.
