The text in this engraving reads:Top Header: Jesus appears to the Disciples going to Emmaus. Luke. XXIV. 30. 31. Bottom Inscription: Luc. XXIV. 30. 31. Le Seigneur Jesus se manifeste aux disciples qui vont a Emmaus. De Heer Jesus ontdekt zich aan de Emmausgangeren.Bottom Right Margin: N. I. 35.Rare 1754 Amsterdam Copperplate Engraving: The Supper at EmmausAn authentic 18th-century copperplate engraving capturing The Supper at Emmaus (Luke 24:30-31). This dramatic post-Resurrection scene depicts the exact moment of recognition when Christ breaks bread with two of his disciples inside a rustic tavern, rendered with superb interior detail and expressive narrative depth.18th-Century Dutch ProvenanceThis print originates from a 1754 New Testament volume published in Amsterdam by the cartographers and book publishers Josua and Reinier Ottens. Operating during the Dutch Enlightenment, the Ottens firm was well-known for its illustrated volumes. This specific plate is sequentially marked N. I. 35. in the lower right margin.Dimensions (Full Leaf)Sheet Size: 254 x 206 mm (10.00 x 8.11 inches)Engraving Technique & DetailsDetailed Composition: The print features Christ on the left seated at a dining table with a radiant halo, breaking bread. Across from him, the two disciples react with expressions of sudden realization and awe. A servant boy stands between them holding a dish, while a kitchen maid is visible working by a hearth in the background on the right. The rustic interior is filled with finely detailed tavern elements, including hanging kitchenware, a water jug, a shelf of plates, and a dog sleeping under a chair on the lower right.Trilingual Inscriptions: Features typography in English, French, and Dutch within the margins:Top Header: Jesus appears to the Disciples going to Emmaus. Luke. XXIV. 30. 31.Bottom Inscription: Luc. XXIV. 30. 31. Le Seigneur Jesus se manifeste aux disciples qui vont a Emmaus. De Heer Jesus ontdekt zich aan de Emmausgangeren.Plate Impression: The print retains a clear, distinct plate mark from the copper press, with intricate linear cross-hatching providing rich tonal contrast within the shaded wooden interior and the folds of the garments. A genuine, nearly 300-year-old print on historic paper. The sheet is stable with a dark, clear image impression, but it shows significant signs of age and structural wear along the margins:Mild, even toning across the paper surface consistent with mid-18th-century paper artifacts.Scattered minor smudging, light surface handling marks, and faint foxing spots are present primarily within the margins.The left edge (the original binding edge) shows heavy, significant rough margins, uneven tears, jagged chipping, and missing paper fragments where it was detached from the original volume binding. This wear includes a small tear extending slightly past the left plate mark border, though it remains clear of the main image area.The bottom margin shows severe chipping, deep uneven wear, and a significant vertical tear/notch that extends upwards, just brushing against the bottom border line of the inscription text without obstructing the letters.A complete collector's example from the Ottens series, offered in honest, un-restored antique condition with notable margin wear as described. …
