Christ Healing the Sick

About this work

This engraving shows a group of people gathered around a central figure who appears to be healing someone on the ground. The crowd looks serious, with some holding staffs or books. In the background, there’s a village with buildings, a bridge over water, and sheep grazing on a hillside. The central figure is likely the one performing the healing, while the others watch closely. The artist used fine lines and shading to create depth, especially in the clothing and landscape. Next, look up engraving to see how artists like this one carved detailed images into metal plates.
