The Incredulity of Saint Thomas

About this work

This black-and-white print shows a shirtless man with his side exposed, standing in front of three others. One man touches his side while another looks on skeptically. The figures wear flowing robes, and the scene feels dramatic, with strong lines and deep shadows. The title hints this is a biblical story about doubt—Thomas touching Jesus’ wounds. The artist used fine lines to create texture, like in clothing folds. Next, check out etching to see how artists like this made detailed prints.
