This drawing shows Jesus bending down to write in the dirt. A crowd stands around him, holding a woman who was caught breaking the rules. The artist used tiny lines to shade the scene. Jesus’ calm face stands out against the nervous crowd. Look for the same fine lines in works by Rembrandt at the National Gallery of Art, Washington.
