Abraham and Isaac

Artist: Rembrandt van Rijn
Artwork: Abraham and Isaac
Description: This artwork is a depiction of the biblical story found in Genesis 22, where God tests Abraham’s faith by commanding him to sacrifice his son Isaac. Rembrandt captures the moment when Abraham, having bound Isaac and placed him on the altar, is about to strike him with a knife. An angel appears at the last moment to stop Abraham, and points out a ram caught in the bushes nearby, which Abraham can sacrifice instead of his son.
