De verloren zoon ontvangt zijn erfdeel 1648 - 1706

"De verloren zoon ontvangt zijn erfdeel" (The Prodigal Son Receives his Inheritance) is an etching by Salomon Savery, a Dutch artist active in the 17th century. Created between 1648 and 1706, this etching depicts a scene from the biblical parable of the Prodigal Son, focusing on the moment when the son, having squandered his inheritance, returns home and is welcomed by his father. The composition is dramatic, with figures in motion and a strong sense of emotion. The work is a prime example of Savery's skill in depicting narrative scenes with intricate detail. "De verloren zoon ontvangt zijn erfdeel" is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
