Natan wijst David op zijn zonden 1696 - 1727

"Natan wijst David op zijn zonden" (Nathan Reproving David for His Sins) is a 17th-century etching by Dutch artist Matthijs Pool, created between 1696 and 1727. The artwork depicts a biblical scene where the prophet Nathan confronts King David for his sins. The etching features a powerful use of light and shadow, typical of the Baroque style. The composition is simple and focused on the interaction between the two figures, emphasizing the dramatic moment of confrontation. This etching, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, offers insight into Pool's artistic skill and his interpretation of biblical narratives.
