Gabriel Huquier's "Bruiloft te Kana" (Wedding at Cana), an etching created before 1732, depicts the biblical event where Jesus turns water into wine. The scene is set within a grand hall, with numerous figures engaged in lively conversation and feasting. The composition is detailed and focused on the miracle of the wine, as depicted through the various vessels and the central figure of Jesus. The artwork is a fine example of French Rococo art, showcasing intricate details and light-hearted subject matter, and is currently held in the Rijksmuseum.
