EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Landscape Abraham begging three angels spare Sodom" transports us to a serene water-rich landscape with distant houses and a quaint church. The foreground of the image captures the pivotal moment when Abraham humbly kneels before three divine angels, pleading for mercy upon the doomed city of Sodom. Inspired by the biblical text in Genesis 18:16-33, this engraving beautifully depicts Jan van Londerseel's interpretation of this sacred scene. The artist skillfully portrays the vastness of nature through his depiction of waterscapes and seascapes in the temperate zone. The attention to detail is evident as every brushstroke brings life to each element within the composition. The year 1614 marks an important historical context for this artwork, originating from Amsterdam. This masterpiece on paper showcases not only Van Londerseel's artistic prowess but also serves as a testament to religious devotion during that era. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of Abraham's unwavering faith and his willingness to intercede on behalf of others. It invites us to reflect on our own acts of compassion and empathy towards those in need
