Efezers verbranden de toverboeken 1697

This anonymous etching, titled "Efezers verbranden de toverboeken," depicts a scene from the New Testament where Ephesians burn their magical books. The print, created in 1697, showcases a dynamic composition with figures in various poses, their faces contorted in a mix of fear and determination as they throw their books into a blazing fire. The scene is framed by a text in Dutch, emphasizing the religious context of the artwork, which is now part of the collection at the Rijksmuseum.
