God verschijnt aan Abraham of Mozes (?) 1723 - 1769

This 18th-century drawing by Johann Georg Trautmann depicts a biblical scene, likely the appearance of God to either Abraham or Moses. The composition showcases the artist's masterful use of light and shadow, emphasizing the divine presence with a radiant figure hovering above a kneeling figure, possibly a prophet. The drawing's expressive lines and loose brushstrokes add to the drama and intensity of the moment, highlighting the awe and reverence of the scene. The artist's skill in capturing the emotional weight of the event is evident in the expressive gestures and the contrast between the radiant figure and the more earthly presence below. The drawing is a testament to Trautmann's talent as a draughtsman and his deep understanding of biblical narratives.
