"Priester ontdekt lessenaar" (1717) by Bernard Picart is an etching depicting two figures, likely priests, in a church setting, one of whom is inspecting an elaborate lectern. The intricate detail of the lectern and the setting, as well as the figures' postures and expressions, suggest a sense of reverence and solemnity. The image is likely a scene from a larger work on religious themes, and the etching's small size, 200 mm by 148 mm, suggests it was likely intended for private viewing. This artwork is now in the Rijksmuseum, making it accessible for the public to study and admire.
