Kind kijkt toe hoe engel beeldje maakt van klei op draaitafel 1590 - 1624

"Kind kijkt toe hoe engel beeldje maakt van klei op draaitafel" (A Child Watches an Angel Make a Clay Figure on a Potter's Wheel), a 17th-century print by Boëtius Adamsz. Bolswert, depicts an angel shaping a figure out of clay on a wheel. The scene, likely referencing a biblical passage, is a testament to the fragility of human life. The angel's focus on the creation of the small figure emphasizes the beauty and transient nature of our existence. The detail-rich print, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, showcases Bolswert's skilled engraving technique.
