"The Betrayal of Christ" This work provides a dramatic representation of the Arrest of Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane, featuring the central figure of Christ surrounded by soldiers with torches and spears, while Saint Peter is shown in the foreground severing the ear of Malchus. The engraving was published in Antwerp as part of the series Vita, Passio, et Resurrectio Iesu Christi. This plate is distinguished by its complex nocturnal lighting effects and the dynamic, muscular figures characteristic of the Flemish Mannerist style.

He played a key role in the production of high-quality religious prints during the Counter-Reformation, often collaborating with the Galle and Sadeler families.
