About the piece
Painted in 1647 by the Flemish master David Teniers the Younger, this work depicts the biblical parable of Dives and Lazarus. The scene is rich with the artist's characteristic imaginative creatures and grotesque demons emerging from the shadows of a cavern. The dramatic use of light and deep, atmospheric tones makes it a compelling piece for those drawn to historical narrative and moody aesthetics.
