This anonymous etching, titled "Twaalf scènes met martelaarschap van apostelen in rechthoekige omlijsting met architectuur ornamenten", depicts the martyrdoms of twelve apostles in a grid-like format. Each apostle is depicted in a separate rectangular frame within the larger composition. The etching is dated 1580-1629 and is housed in the Rijksmuseum. The work displays the use of architectural ornamentation, a common stylistic element in Northern Renaissance art, demonstrating the influence of the period's interest in classical architecture and visual order.
