Pieter Perret

Pieter Perret is represented in this archive by a single engraving, known in its second state of two, depicting Christ and the Woman Taken in Adultery. The plate belongs to the late sixteenth century, with impressions dated 1579, and reflects the period's reproductive printmaking, in which engraved lines carried biblical narrative to a wide audience. That lone sheet, rendered in engraving and preserved here in its later state, is the entirety of the collection's holding for this artist.
