"Michaël vecht tegen duivels" (Michael Fights Against Devils), created in 1750 by Dutch artist Jan Punt, depicts a scene of the Archangel Michael battling a fallen angel, likely Lucifer, in a dynamic composition. The detailed engraving is a striking representation of this biblical story, showcasing Michael as a strong warrior wielding a sword, while Lucifer is depicted with a demonic appearance, wings, and a snake-like tail. The intricate details and dramatic composition make this a notable work of art for its depiction of the struggle between good and evil. This etching, housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a valuable example of Dutch art in the 18th century.
