This engraving, created by Willem Thibaut in 1580, depicts a biblical scene where Sarah asks Abraham to send away Hagar and Ishmael. The engraving, which measures 206 mm by 237 mm, showcases a detailed narrative, portraying Sarah demanding Abraham to banish his concubine and son. The scene takes place within a grand architectural setting, highlighting the social hierarchy of the time. The inscription at the bottom in Latin, "Sara suo illudi naro non passa, pruigma Imperio amandat feuo, fat miqua marito 1", translates to "Sarah does not bear to be mocked, her husband, she rules by her command". This print is a significant example of the artist's detailed style and his dedication to portraying biblical narratives.
