Kaïn, zijn vrouw en zijn zoon Henoch 1583

This 1583 engraving by Johann Sadeler I depicts the biblical story of Cain, his wife, and their son Enoch, from the Book of Genesis. The work showcases Sadeler's expertise in rendering detailed landscapes, figures, and animals. Cain is shown building a hut, while his wife sits nearby, nursing their son. The scene is populated with a variety of domestic animals and is set in a landscape featuring a distant view of a hilly region, with a figure in the background, presumably God, observing the family. This engraving is an example of the Northern Renaissance style and is held at the Rijksmuseum.
