This 1662 engraving by Theodor Matham is a title page for the third and final volume of the works of Willem Perkins. The image is a Baroque composition that depicts the deceased clergyman at the center with a halo, flanked by angels and figures from the Bible, including God the Father and Jesus Christ. This title page is an example of a visual representation of a Protestant theologian and is typical of the religious art of the Dutch Golden Age. The work is in the collection of the Rijksmuseum.
