Storm op het Meer van Galilea 1598 - 1618

"Storm op het Meer van Galilea" is a 17th-century etching by Cornelis Galle I. It depicts a scene from the Bible, where Jesus calms a storm on the Sea of Galilee. The print features a dramatic composition with turbulent waves, a small boat tossed about, and a lightning bolt in the distance. The figures of the disciples are shown in various poses of fear and distress. Galle I's etching is a powerful example of the Baroque style and its ability to convey intense emotion and drama. The piece is currently in the collection of the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, a testament to its historical and artistic significance.
