EDITORS COMMENTS

Created by Georg Pencz, a German artist of great repute during the Renaissance period, this engraving beautifully captures a biblical scene. The image depicts Tobias, a central figure in Hebrew scripture, leaving the table after an important event. With intricate details and delicate lines characteristic of Pencz's style, we witness Tobias rising from his seat with purposeful determination.

This artwork holds immense religious significance as it draws inspiration from the Old Testament story of Tobias. It serves as a visual representation of faith and devotion within Christianity and Judaism alike. Through this piece, Pencz skillfully conveys not only religious themes but also cultural heritage. Currently housed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, this print showcases Pencz's mastery in capturing emotion through engravings. Its timeless appeal transcends centuries and continues to captivate art enthusiasts today.
