Biddende H. Augustinus 1608 - 1688

This anonymous etching, titled *Biddende H. Augustinus*, depicts Saint Augustine kneeling in prayer. The scene is set in a natural landscape with a tree trunk and foliage in the background. The image is a powerful visual representation of Augustine's faith and devotion, a central figure in the history of Christianity. The artwork's somber tone, detailed rendering of the figure's posture and surroundings highlight the importance of religious introspection and the power of prayer. The etching is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, a testament to its historical and artistic significance.
