This engraving by Lodewyk Schelthout shows Joseph, the legal father of Jesus, being visited by an angel in a dream.
The Dutch artist-graphic artist Lodewijk Schelfhout (1881-1943), grandson of the romantic landscape painter Andreas Schelfhout (1787-1870), played an important role in modernism in the Netherlands. In Paris, where he lived and worked between 1903 and 1913, Schelfhout introduced art critic-painter Conrad Kickert (1882-1965) and painter Piet Mondriaan (1872-1944) to international art circuits. In Paris, Schelfhout, Kickert and Mondriaan had a studio at the same address. Schelfhout, a self-taught artist, fueled the idea for the foundation of the Modern Art Circle in Amsterdam.
