"Lot and his Daughters" is a bronze sculpture created by German artist Leonhard Kern in the 17th century. The sculpture depicts the biblical story of Lot and his daughters, who escaped the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah. The artwork, currently on display at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, portrays Lot and his daughters as figures of classical mythology, with Lot seated between his daughters, sharing a cup of wine. This work exemplifies Kern's talent for capturing the human form in naturalistic detail.
