This mesmerizing pen and ink print, enhanced with gouache on paper, measures 18x12.5 cm and can be found at the Louvre Museum in Paris. The scene depicted showcases a group of witches embarking on their journey to the Sabbath, a secret gathering where they engage in dark rituals and commune with supernatural forces.

A devilish atmosphere permeates this composition; we witness witches soaring through the night sky astride broomsticks or peculiar creatures resembling goats.

This artwork serves as a testament to Altdorfer's talent for storytelling through visual imagery. "Leaving for the Sabbath" invites viewers into a realm where reality blurs with fantasy, leaving us captivated by its occult symbolism and timeless allure.
