Author: Luiken, Jan, 1649-1712
Image Title: The Club
Scripture Reference:
Description: In a winter landscape, a youth aims his golf club at a ball, while his friend awaits his turn, and two warmly dressed men look on. In the right background a man is skating on the ice and smoke rises from one of the houses. The Dutch artist and poet Jan Luiken (1649-1712) was responsible for drawing and etching this emblem (though Pieter Sluiter [1675-1713] finished the background) and for the brief poem that accompanies it (below). The attendant Scripture texts are Psalm 19:12-15, 51:17; Joel 2:12-13; Matt 6:21, 12:35; and Luke 4:18.
