Heilige Hyacinthus van Polen geeft een onbekende heilige het habijt 1595 - 1600

This engraving by Johann Sadeler I, dating back to 1595-1600, depicts a scene of religious significance. The central figure, a young woman, kneels before a priest who appears to be placing a religious habit on her. The inscription below the image, "Ob miraculi fartu in refuscitatione mortui, fuscipit habitu a S.Domi-nico, apud S.Sabina," translates to "By the miracle of his resurrection from the dead, he receives the habit of St. Dominic at St. Sabina." This image, part of a larger series, was likely commissioned by a religious order, reflecting the importance of faith and miracles in the 16th century. The meticulous detail and use of light and shadow characteristic of Sadeler's work creates a sense of depth and realism, enhancing the narrative of the scene. This small but powerful engraving serves as a testament to the artist's skill and the enduring power of religious imagery.
