"Lamech met zijn vrouw en kinderen" is a 16th-century woodcut print by an anonymous artist, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum. The image depicts a scene from the biblical story of Lamech, his wives, and children. The composition features a central group of three adults—Lamech, his wives Adah and Zillah—surrounded by four children playing. The artist's depiction of the family suggests the complexities of polygamy in biblical times. The print’s fine detail and the use of line and shadow add to its appeal and historical significance.
