This pen and ink drawing, "Ontwerp voor een titelblad met allegorie op het Geloof," by Dutch artist Jan Wandelaar (1690-1759) is a fine example of Baroque style. The drawing depicts a religious allegory centered around the concept of faith, or "Geloof" in Dutch. The piece shows two women, one holding a cross, the other holding a lamp, perhaps symbolizing the light of faith illuminating the path. The artwork is housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
