Jesus with the Pharisees is a 1635 ink by Jacques Callot, a Baroque work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This black-and-white print shows a group of people in a tense scene. One man in a fancy coat stands out, pointing at something while others watch or argue. In the background, a village and fields stretch out under a tree with dramatic branches. The people look serious, some holding objects or gesturing. The artist used sharp lines to show movement and emotion. The text at the bottom hints at a biblical story, but the focus is on the crowd’s reactions. Next, look up etching to see how artists like Callot made detailed prints.
Jacques Callot was a baroque printmaker and draftsman from the Duchy of Lorraine.
