Christus en Petrus 1666

This etching, "Christus en Petrus" (Christ and Peter), by Pieter van Schuppen, depicts a moment from the Gospel of John. Christ is shown speaking to Peter in a scene crowded with disciples. The print's inscription, "Domine, ad quem ibimus? Verba vitae aeterna habes. Joan. 6.69," translates to "Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life." This biblical story speaks to the power of faith and the importance of Christ's teachings. Van Schuppen's detailed etching, created in 1666, offers a visually compelling depiction of this pivotal scene from the Bible.
