"Engel wijst de drie vrouwen op het lege graf van Christus" (Angel shows the three women the empty tomb of Christ) is an etching by Jean Louis Roullet. It depicts the moment when the angel Gabriel reveals to three women, likely Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome, that Christ has risen from the dead. The artwork, dated 1655-1699, is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum. Roullet (1645-1699) was a Dutch engraver who specialized in religious subjects. The artwork was likely popular among devout Christians of the time, as it depicts a key moment in Christian faith.
