"Le Sacrifice d'Abraham" is a 17th-century oil painting by the Flemish Baroque artist Gerard Seghers, depicting the biblical story of the Binding of Isaac, found in the Book of Genesis. In this dramatic narrative, God commands Abraham to sacrifice his son Isaac as a test of faith, only to intervene at the last moment via an angel to prevent the act. Seghers' interpretation of this pivotal moment is known for its emotional intensity and masterful use of chiaroscuro, a technique that employs strong contrasts between light and dark to achieve a sense of volume and depth in painting.

Gerard Seghers (1591–1651) was an influential painter and art collector who became a master in the Antwerp Guild of St. Luke at a young age and later served as the dean of the guild. His work often reflects the influence of the Italian Caravaggisti, artists who followed the revolutionary style of Caravaggio, characterized by realistic observation of the human state and the use of dramatic lighting.

In "Le Sacrifice d'Abraham," Seghers captures the emotional climax of the story, focusing on the figures of Abraham and Isaac, whose expressions and gestures convey the gravity of the situation. The painting is noted for its composition and the way in which light illuminates the protagonists, creating a focal point that draws the viewer into the scene. The work is a prime example of Seghers' skill in blending religious themes with the Baroque aesthetic, making it a significant piece within his oeuvre and an important work of Flemish Baroque painting.

The painting is part of Seghers' broader body of work, which includes both religious and genre scenes, and it contributes to our understanding of the Counter-Reformation's impact on the visual arts. "Le Sacrifice d'Abraham" not only reflects the religious fervor of the period but also showcases the artist's ability to convey complex human emotions and to engage the viewer with a powerful narrative rendered in paint.
