Profeet Daniël 1606 - 1609

This etching by Raffaello Schiaminossi, created between 1606 and 1609, depicts the biblical prophet Daniel holding a tablet. Daniel, known for his wisdom and prophecy, is portrayed with a serious expression and a long, flowing robe. The composition, set against a simple background, emphasizes the figure's focus and solemnity. The work is a fine example of Schiaminossi's skill in creating detailed and expressive etchings, a popular artistic medium in the 17th century. The engraving, titled "Profeet Daniël," is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum.
