Apostel Petrus wekt Tabitha tot leven 1697

This 1697 engraving by an anonymous artist depicts the biblical story of the apostle Peter raising Tabitha from the dead. The scene is set on a rooftop with a cityscape and a dome-shaped building in the background. Peter is kneeling and reaching out to Tabitha who lies on a bed. This dramatic moment of resurrection is captured in detail, conveying the power of faith and divine intervention. The print is a fine example of early modern graphic art, and it is held in the Rijksmuseum.
