Engraving of a bearded man leaning on a rock as a crouched figure in a pointed hat reaches toward him, with rocky hills and a tree behind.

De verzoeking van Christus

An engraving shows a bearded, long-haired man in a loose robe leaning on a rocky outcrop at left, while a crouched figure in a tall pointed hat reaches toward him with a staff. Rocky hills, a distant towered town, and a tree at right fill the landscape, rendered in fine cross-hatched lines.

Español: La tentación de Cristo

Un grabado muestra a un hombre barbudo de cabello largo, con túnica holgada, apoyado en una roca a la izquierda, mientras una figura agachada con un gorro alto y puntiagudo se inclina hacia él con un bastón. Colinas rocosas, una ciudad lejana con torres y un árbol a la derecha completan el paisaje, trazado con finas líneas entrecruzadas.
