"Wonderen verricht door Christus" (Miracles Performed by Christ) is a 17th-century engraving by Boëtius Adamsz. Bolswert, now housed in the Rijksmuseum. The detailed composition depicts two scenes; Christ healing a sick woman in a bed on the left, and a scene of Christ appearing to his apostles at sea in the top right corner. This engraving is a striking example of the meticulous detail and storytelling power of 17th-century printmaking. The use of light and shadow to create depth and drama is characteristic of the Baroque style, making this artwork a valuable example for studying the artistic techniques of the period.
