"De zoon weigert op het lijk van zijn vader te schieten" (The Son Refuses to Shoot at His Father's Corpse) is a 1551 engraving by Melchior Lorck (1526-1588). Depicting a scene from the Book of Judges, it shows the son refusing to shoot his father's body, illustrating his sense of loyalty and respect. Lorck's detailed style showcases the historical dress, landscape, and the architectural features of a fortified town in the background. The engraving is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam.
