Baptism of the Chamberlain of Queen Candace of Ethiopia
An etching on paper shows a bearded man in a long robe bending over a kneeling figure beside a rocky outcrop, while a camel and spear-carrying attendants stand at center and right. Beneath a large parasol held by a servant, armed men and a veiled figure watch the scene, with fine hatched lines modeling the landscape and figures.
