Abraham Hondius' 1668 oil painting, "Christ among the Doctors," depicts the biblical story of a young Jesus engaging in theological debate with scholars in the Temple of Jerusalem. The painting is notable for its dramatic composition, with Jesus and the scholars grouped around a central table, while Joseph and Mary stand in the foreground. Hondius' work, though not as famous as that of his contemporaries Rembrandt or Vermeer, offers a unique perspective on this popular subject in art history.
