Engel met het zwaard van Petrus, de geldbuidel van Judas en een toorts

A winged angel is shown from the waist up, holding a tall torch and Judas Iscariot's purse containing thirty pieces of silver. In the foreground, the curved sword used by Peter to strike Malchus lies on a stone ledge. The scene is rendered with dense cross-hatching, creating a dramatic interplay of light and shadow characteristic of Northern Mannerist printmaking.

This work belongs to the 'Arma Christi' (Instruments of the Passion) iconographic tradition, where objects from Christ's suffering were used as mnemonic aids for devotional meditation. Aegidius Sadeler was a central figure in the circle of Rudolf II in Prague, where such religious imagery often intersected with a high degree of technical artifice and intellectual sophistication.
