Het losbandige leven van de verloren zoon 1648 - 1706

"Het losbandige leven van de verloren zoon" (The dissolute life of the prodigal son) is a print from the 17th century by Salomon Savery. It depicts a scene of a lavish feast with several figures gathered around a table, indulging in rich food and drink. The print, originally part of a book, exemplifies Savery's skill in capturing the details of everyday life and the vibrant atmosphere of a festive gathering. This work, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, showcases a popular theme in art and literature, the prodigal son, a cautionary tale of extravagance and redemption.
