This print from the Liszt Collection showcases a remarkable artwork titled "Heroines of the New Testament: The Woman Taken in Adultery" by Jan Saenredam, a renowned Dutch artist from the late 16th century. Through his masterful engraving technique, Saenredam brings to life an evocative scene that resonates with timeless themes of forgiveness and redemption. The image depicts a pivotal moment from biblical lore when Jesus encounters a woman accused of adultery.
