Samuël 1575

"Samuël" is an engraving created by Johann Sadeler I in 1575. It depicts the biblical prophet Samuel, holding a vessel and a crown, standing on a hilltop. The print is characterized by intricate details, including a mountainous landscape in the background and a delicate pattern on Samuel's robe. Sadeler was a renowned printmaker known for his skillful use of engraving and his ability to capture realistic details. This work, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, demonstrates his mastery of the medium and his dedication to biblical themes.
