En engel viser sig for Filip 1572

This drawing, "En engel viser sig for Filip", depicts a scene from the biblical story of the apostle Philip. Created by Maarten van Heemskerck in 1572, the artwork shows Philip, seated, surprised as an angel appears to him, suggesting a divine message. Heemskerck, a prominent Dutch Renaissance artist, masterfully portrays the scene using detailed hatching and shading in this delicate black chalk drawing. This work is a testament to the artistry of van Heemskerck and offers viewers a glimpse into the religious and artistic traditions of the 16th century.
