"The Witches' Sabbath" is an engraving created by Bernard Picart (1673–1733), a French engraver and book illustrator, in 1732, after a design by Girolamo Francesco Maria Mazzola, better known as Parmigianino (1503–1540). This work is a representation of the nocturnal gathering of witches, a subject that has fascinated and horrified audiences throughout history, reflecting the period's superstitions and the fascination with the occult.

Picart, renowned for his skillful engravings, was a pivotal figure in the early 18th-century European art scene. His works often depicted religious, historical, and mythological scenes, and "The Witches' Sabbath" is no exception, showcasing his ability to convey complex themes with intricate detail and dramatic composition. The engraving is based on Parmigianino's original design, which exemplifies the Mannerist style of the Italian Renaissance, characterized by elongated figures and unconventional spatial arrangements that evoke a sense of the fantastical and otherworldly.

The scene depicted in "The Witches' Sabbath" is rich with symbolism and dark undertones, capturing the essence of the witchcraft trials and the moral panic surrounding witchcraft during the 16th and 17th centuries. The engraving would have served as a visual narrative that both intrigued and educated its viewers about the perceived dangers and rituals associated with witchcraft.

As an important work of art, "The Witches' Sabbath" not only highlights the collaborative nature of printmaking in the early modern period but also serves as a historical document, reflecting the cultural and societal beliefs of its time. It remains an important piece for scholars studying the history of witchcraft, the dissemination of ideas through art, and the cross-cultural influences between Italian and French art during the Baroque period.
