God verschijnt aan Isaak en verbiedt hem Egypte binnen te gaan 1607

This etching by Giovanni Lanfranco, titled "God verschijnt aan Isaak en verbiedt hem Egypte binnen te gaan" (God appears to Isaac and forbids him from entering Egypt), depicts a biblical scene from Genesis. The dramatic composition showcases the divine power of God, appearing in the sky, forbidding Isaac from entering Egypt. The scene is set amidst a landscape featuring trees and a walled city in the background. This artwork from 1607, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, exemplifies Lanfranco's masterful use of light and shadow to create a sense of depth and drama, characteristic of the Baroque style.
