"Engel en een vrouw verschijnen aan een naakte man" is an etching by Philippus Velijn, dating back to 1820. The piece, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, depicts a man lying in a grassy field, with a woman and an angel appearing to him from the clouds. The delicate lines and subtle shading of Velijn's etching contribute to a sense of etherealness and mystery, which draws the viewer into the narrative of the artwork. The artwork's small scale, measuring 99 mm by 74 mm, reflects the intimate and personal nature of its subject matter.
