Original antique woodcut depicting Jonah sits under the wonder tree, Jonah sits overlooking the city of Nineveh waiting for God to destroy the city. God has grown a miracle tree for him so that he can sit in the shade. But the next day the tree has withered, the leaves hang limp, and Jonah is overcome by the heat. This print originates from the work ”t’Scat der Zielen, dat is: Het geheete leven ons Heeren Jesu Christi…”, published in Amsterdam in 1648 by Pieter I. Print was made by Christoffel van Sichem (II) after Veit Rudolf Specklin, published in Amsterdam, 1648. Christoffel van Sichem (II) (circa 1580–1651) was a Dutch engraver and printmaker known for his detailed and expressive engravings. He was part of the van Sichem family of artists, which was influential in the 16th and 17th centuries. His works often depicted religious and mythological subjects, as well as scenes from daily life. Van Sichem's engravings were widely recognized for their technical skill and artistic quality, contributing significantly to the golden age of Dutch printmaking.
