This is an etching by Johann Gottlieb Friedrich, created between 1742 and 1809. It's an illustration for the book "Katekismus for alle mennesker," a catechism for all people. The image depicts a scene of two figures, possibly symbolizing good and evil, engaged in a struggle. The intricate detail of the etching, visible in the figures' clothing and the surrounding architecture, highlights the artist's skill in this medium. This artwork, currently housed in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, offers insight into the religious teachings and artistic practices of its time.
