"Christ Admonishes His Disciples" is a 16th-century engraving by Léonard Gaultier, a French artist known for his religious works. The engraving depicts a scene from the Gospel of Matthew, where Jesus is seen admonishing his disciples, surrounded by a picturesque landscape. Gaultier uses intricate detail and masterful use of light and shadow to bring the scene to life. This engraving is a testament to Gaultier's talent as a draftsman and the popular appeal of religious imagery during the Renaissance period.
