"Christus in het huis van Marta en Maria / Christus en de overspelige vrouw" (1716 - 1791) is an engraving by Pieter Tanjé (1706 - 1761) that depicts two scenes from the Gospels. The upper scene shows Jesus in a house, speaking with Martha and Mary while a servant pours water into a basin. The lower scene depicts a scene of Jesus defending a woman accused of adultery from being stoned. This artwork, now at the Rijksmuseum, exemplifies Tanjé’s mastery of intricate detail and the skillful rendering of light and shadow, characteristics of Dutch art from this period.
