"The Second Day (Dies II)" is an engraving created by Hendrick Goltzius in 1594 as part of his series "The Creation of the World." The image depicts the second day of creation as described in the Bible, when God separated the waters of the heavens from the waters of the earth.

The image shows a chaotic scene of water and clouds swirling around each other, with rays of light shining through the clouds. In the center of the image is a figure of God, surrounded by angels, who is holding back the waters of the heavens with a gesture of his hand. The figure of God is portrayed in a majestic and powerful manner, with his robes and hair blowing in the wind.

Goltzius's engraving is notable for its dramatic use of light and shadow, as well as the intricate detailing of the clouds and water. The image captures the sense of power and grandeur of the Biblical account of creation, making it a powerful work of art that continues to inspire viewers today.

Overall, "The Second Day (Dies II)" is a testament to Goltzius's skill as an engraver and his ability to create complex and powerful images that convey important religious themes.
