"Vier devotiebeelden" (Four devotional images) is a woodcut print by van der Haeghen, likely dating from between 1700 and 1865. Held in the Rijksmuseum, the artwork is comprised of four distinct scenes, each representing a different aspect of religious devotion. The top left image depicts the crucifixion of Jesus Christ, with the Virgin Mary and St. John the Evangelist mourning. The top right panel shows an angel weighing souls, with a devil below, illustrating the Last Judgment. The bottom left features an image of Our Lady of Liesse, a prominent figure in Catholic devotion, while the final panel depicts another scene involving the Virgin Mary, this time within a tree. The scenes are presented within a series of rectangular panels, with simple lines and intricate details, characteristic of devotional art of the period.
