Abraham's Sacrifice

Rembrandt van Rijn

Cleveland Museum of Art

Black and white image of two men, one with wings, and one with a long white beard bending over a sacrifice table with altar. The man with the long white beard holds a dagger in his right hand and grabs the angel's arm with his left. The angel grabs the old man's arm closest to the viewer with one hand and his chin with his other hand. A knife and chopping block are on the ground. A mountainous landscape. Abraham's Sacrifice by Rembrandt van Rijn.
