"Heilige familie en een engel" is an etching by Jacob Matham, a Dutch artist active in the late 16th and early 17th centuries. The print, created in 1608, depicts the Holy Family with an angel. Mary, Joseph, and baby Jesus are portrayed in a tender and intimate scene, highlighting the religious significance of the subject. This small-scale work, typical of Matham's style, was likely intended for private devotion. The Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam houses this piece, which showcases Matham's mastery of detail and the expressive power of the etching medium.
