Christ Teaching c. 1576 - 1580

"Christ Teaching" is an etching created by French artist Léonard Gaultier between 1576 and 1580. The scene depicts Jesus Christ seated at a table with his disciples, teaching them a lesson. The etching's composition and use of chiaroscuro create a sense of intimacy and realism, drawing the viewer into the scene. The work is a testament to Gaultier's ability to capture the essence of religious narratives through his detailed and expressive style, making it an important piece within the broader context of 16th-century religious art.
