Apostelen beschuldigd van teveel wijn gedronken te hebben 1697

This etching, titled "Apostelen beschuldigd van teveel wijn gedronken te hebben" (Apostles accused of having drunk too much wine), is a 1697 depiction of a scene from the Bible, specifically the Book of Acts chapter 2, verse 13. The anonymous artist uses a dynamic composition and expressive lines to portray the moment when the Apostles are accused of being drunk, a narrative that refers to the early days of Christianity. The print uses Latin in the title and a German inscription to connect the image to its scriptural source, highlighting the importance of both religious and historical context in its interpretation.
