Allegorie met de heilige Geest 1633 - 1692

This etching, created by Cornelis Bloemaert between 1633 and 1692, depicts an allegory of the Holy Spirit. The central figure, representing the Holy Spirit, sits amidst a heavenly scene, surrounded by cherubs and angels. The dove, a symbol of the Holy Spirit, hovers above, radiating light. The cherubs carry various attributes, including keys and a mitre, symbolizing the power and authority of the Holy Spirit. This artwork, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a powerful and evocative depiction of a central theological concept.
