Raymond Diocrès kondigt zijn verdoemenis aan 1623 - 1676

"Raymond Diocrès kondigt zijn verdoemenis aan" is an etching by French artist François Chauveau, created between 1623 and 1676. The print, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, depicts a dramatic scene of a dying man, possibly Raymond Diocrès, surrounded by figures. Chauveau, known for his masterful use of light and shadow, creates a sense of somber solemnity through the use of chiaroscuro. This scene of death and religious devotion offers a glimpse into the beliefs and anxieties of the 17th century.
