"Christus, Die Zwolf Apostel Und Paulus" (Christ, the Twelve Apostles, and Paul) is a renowned series of engravings by the Dutch artist Hendrick Goltzius, created in the late 16th century. Goltzius, a master printmaker, draftsman, and painter, was a leading figure in the Northern Mannerist movement, known for his sophisticated technique and the virtuosity of his works. This series is particularly notable for its intricate detail, expressive figures, and the use of chiaroscuro to create dramatic effects.

The series comprises thirteen individual prints, each depicting Christ, the twelve apostles, and the apostle Paul. These works are significant for their iconography and the manner in which Goltzius captures the individual personalities and attributes traditionally associated with each biblical figure. For example, Peter is often depicted with the keys to heaven, while Paul is shown with a sword, referencing his martyrdom.

Goltzius's engravings are characterized by their elaborate style and the combination of classical ideals with the heightened emotionality of the late Renaissance. The series reflects the artist's deep engagement with the religious and cultural themes of his time, as well as his mastery of the engraving medium. The prints would have been highly valued among collectors and connoisseurs of the period for both their artistic merit and devotional content.

"Christus, Die Zwolf Apostel Und Paulus" is considered an important work in Goltzius's oeuvre and contributes to our understanding of the Northern Renaissance and the development of printmaking as a form of fine art. The series exemplifies the synthesis of technical skill and complex iconography, making it a subject of study for art historians and enthusiasts of Renaissance art.
