This 16th-century engraving by Georg Pencz, titled "Abraham en de drie engelen," depicts the biblical story of Abraham's hospitality to three angels disguised as men. The scene, rendered in intricate detail, shows Abraham offering food and drink to the three angels as they sit at a table. This artwork, created during the Northern Renaissance, is a testament to Pencz's skill in capturing the drama and emotion of a biblical scene, highlighting the strong connection between religious faith and artistic expression during that era. The engraving is currently housed at the Rijksmuseum, offering a glimpse into the artistic and cultural landscape of the time.
