This 1703 etching by Gilliam van der Gouwen, titled "Vliegende engel in een landschap," depicts a winged angel flying above a landscape, holding a scroll inscribed with "EVANGELIA ETERNA." The angel's outstretched arm points towards the distant city, implying the spread of the Gospel. The work, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, showcases Van der Gouwen's mastery of detail and his use of light and shadow to create a sense of depth and atmosphere. The artwork exemplifies Dutch Baroque art's focus on religious themes and its technical skill in printmaking.
