Vignet til N. E. Balle "Theses Theologica" 1752 - 1833

"Vignet til N. E. Balle "Theses Theologica"" is an etching by Danish artist Meno Haas, created between 1752 and 1833. The artwork features three cherubs, one holding a cross, one holding a ruler, and one holding a book, building a structure with tablets at the top. A dove ascends from the structure, bathed in radiant light, symbolizing the Holy Spirit. The artwork is a vignette, a small decorative design, created for N. E. Balle's "Theses Theologica", likely representing the theological themes presented in the work. This etching, now part of the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst collection, is a fine example of Haas's work and offers insights into the artistic and religious contexts of 18th-century Denmark.
