De ongelovige Thomas herkent Christus 1650

This drawing by Samuel van Hoogstraten depicts the biblical scene of "Doubting Thomas" where the apostle Thomas kneels before Christ. This scene is from the Gospel of John, where Thomas refuses to believe Christ's resurrection unless he sees the wounds in his hands. This drawing, done in pen and ink, showcases the artist's ability to create a dynamic and emotional scene with minimal detail. The composition focuses on the moment of Thomas's recognition, with Christ's figure slightly off-center and the other apostles gathered around. This drawing is part of the collection of the Rijksmuseum.
