"Vader bevrijd door zijn zoon" (Father Liberated by His Son) is an engraving by Noach van der (II) Meer, dated 1778-1785. It depicts a dramatic scene, possibly from a play or myth, with figures in a stone-walled room. The scene features a woman in a long dress, a man kneeling before her, another man standing in the background, and a glimpse of a fourth figure outside a doorway. The engraving is a good example of the fine-art printmaking popular in the 18th century, known for its detailed and expressive style. The print is currently housed at the Rijksmuseum.
