"The Miraculous Draught of Fishes" is an engraving by Nicolas Dorigny, a prominent French engraver of the late 17th and early 18th centuries. Dorigny, born in 1658, was known for his meticulous and refined engraving techniques, which he employed to reproduce the works of renowned painters. This particular engraving is a reproduction of a painting by the Italian Baroque master Raphael, originally created as part of the series of cartoons for tapestries commissioned by Pope Leo X for the Sistine Chapel.

The scene depicted in "The Miraculous Draught of Fishes" is derived from the New Testament, specifically the Gospel of Luke (5:1-11), where Jesus performs a miracle by instructing Simon Peter and his fellow fishermen to cast their nets into the water, resulting in an overwhelming catch of fish. This event is significant as it symbolizes the calling of the first disciples and the beginning of their mission to become "fishers of men."

Dorigny's engraving captures the dramatic and spiritual essence of Raphael's composition, emphasizing the expressions and gestures of the figures, as well as the intricate details of the surrounding landscape and seascape. The work showcases Dorigny's ability to translate the dynamic and harmonious qualities of Raphael's original painting into the medium of engraving, preserving the narrative and emotional impact of the scene.

This engraving is not only a testament to Dorigny's skill but also serves as an important historical document, reflecting the artistic collaborations and cultural exchanges between France and Italy during the Baroque period. It remains a valuable piece for both art historians and enthusiasts, illustrating the enduring influence of Raphael's work and the technical prowess of engravers like Nicolas Dorigny.
