This etching by Jan Baptist Berterham, titled "Kroning en aanbidding van Christus" (1696-1721), depicts the coronation of Christ in a dramatic composition. The scene is populated with figures representing the heavens and earth, symbolizing the dual nature of Christ's dominion. The presence of angels and cherubs emphasizes the divine aspect of the event, while the figures below suggest the human world. This intricate work, part of the Rijksmuseum collection, showcases Berterham's skill in portraying both the grandeur and the intimate details of the Christian story.
