Op weg naar Emmaüs Possibly 1648 - 1677

This drawing, *Op weg naar Emmaüs*, is a work by Dutch Golden Age painter Harmen ter Borch, dating to between 1648 and 1677. The drawing depicts a scene from the Gospel of Luke, in which Jesus appears to two disciples on the road to Emmaus, after his resurrection. This piece is part of the Rijksmuseum collection in Amsterdam, and is a fine example of Ter Borch's skill in rendering human figures and their detailed clothing. The use of pen and ink is characteristic of his style and creates a striking contrast between light and shadow, accentuating the drama of the scene.
