"Quis evadet?" is a renowned engraving created by the Dutch artist Hendrick Goltzius in 1594. Goltzius, a master printmaker and draftsman of the late Mannerist period, was known for his virtuoso technique and complex compositions. This particular work is part of a series of engravings that explore themes of fate and human vulnerability, which were common subjects in the art and literature of the period.

The title "Quis evadet?" translates from Latin to "Who will escape?" and reflects the central theme of the piece: the inescapability of fate. The engraving depicts a dramatic scene in which various figures attempt to evade the clutches of Death, personified as a skeleton. The composition is rich with allegorical elements and iconography that invite interpretation and contemplation.

Goltzius's use of intricate lines and careful shading in "Quis evadet?" demonstrates his exceptional skill in manipulating the burin, the tool used for engraving on copper plates. The result is a print that not only showcases the technical prowess of Goltzius but also serves as a poignant memento mori, a reminder of the inevitability of death.

As a significant work by Hendrick Goltzius, "Quis evadet?" is held in high esteem by art historians and collectors alike. It is often studied for its artistic merit and as an example of the themes and styles prevalent in late 16th-century Northern European art. The engraving can be found in the collections of major museums and has been the subject of scholarly analysis in the context of Goltzius's oeuvre and the broader cultural milieu of the Dutch Golden Age.
