"The Emperor Augustus and the Tiburtine Sibyl, The Reverse with Christ and the Woman Taken into Adultery, en Grisaille" is a notable work by the early Netherlandish painter Cornelis Engebrechtsz. Created in the early 16th century, this double-sided panel painting is an exemplar of the Northern Renaissance, showcasing the artist's skill in both composition and the use of the grisaille technique. On one side of the panel, Engebrechtsz depicts a legendary Christian tale where the Tiburtine Sibyl reveals a vision of the Virgin and Child to the Roman Emperor Augustus, signifying the advent of Christ and the end of the pagan era. The reverse side of the panel portrays the biblical scene of Christ and the Woman Taken into Adultery, a narrative from the Gospel of John where Jesus challenges those without sin to cast the first stone at an adulterous woman, ultimately forgiving her.

Engebrechtsz, who was active in Leiden and is considered one of the city's earliest significant painters, was known for his religious works and his role in the development of Dutch Renaissance painting. His use of grisaille—a method of painting entirely in shades of grey to simulate sculpture—demonstrates his mastery of the technique and his innovative approach to creating visual narratives. The dual-sided painting serves not only as a religious and moral lesson but also as a testament to the transitional period in European art where Gothic traditions began to give way to Renaissance ideals and techniques.

The painting is significant for its historical and cultural context, its artistic merit, and its representation of the themes of prophecy and redemption. It is an important piece for understanding the evolution of Dutch painting and the broader Northern Renaissance movement. The work is held in a notable collection, although the specific location may vary as it could be on loan or part of a traveling exhibition. It continues to be a subject of study for art historians and a point of interest for visitors and scholars interested in the period, the artist, and the technique.
