A Versatile Master of Rotterdam

Beyond the canvas, Richters was a skilled etcher, wood engraver, and lithographer, producing everything from religious prints to political cartoons. His technical mastery also found expression in glass painting, where he designed intricate stained-glass windows for various churches, including the Zuiderkerk and the Sint-Janskerk.
