Sacrament van priesterwijding 1576

"Sacrament van priesterwijding" (1576) by Philips Galle is an engraving depicting the ordination of a priest in a cathedral. The artwork is a complex composition, with multiple scenes and figures arranged in a hierarchical manner. The central scene depicts the ordination ceremony itself, while smaller scenes surrounding it depict moments from the biblical stories of Christ and his disciples. The use of fine lines and intricate detail is characteristic of Galle's style and the engraving's intricate detail makes it a work that would be appreciated by both art lovers and historians.
