Jerome Hieronymous Wierix carved delicate prints in the late 1500s and early 1600s. His engravings show finely shaded figures, often with flowing drapery and calm, inward expressions. Look at his print La Vierge au Bras Couvert, where a robed woman holds a child in a softly lit space. Tap the print to zoom in on the needle-sharp lines that give the scene its quiet strength.
