Emmaüsgangers 1594 - 1629

"Emmaüsgangers" is an etching by Pierre Fatoure, a French artist, that depicts a scene from the Bible, specifically the moment when Jesus Christ appears to two disciples on the road to Emmaus after his resurrection. The etching was created between 1594 and 1629. The scene is presented from a perspective as if the viewer is sitting at the table with Jesus and the disciples, creating a sense of intimacy. This artwork is a fine example of the Baroque era's fascination with religious themes.
