EDITORS COMMENTS
This woodcut print, created by the Dutch artist Cornelis Anthonisz between 1540 and 1550, depicts the biblical scene of 'The Prodigal Son Receives His Inheritance.' The image captures a poignant moment in the story of the Prodigal Son, as told in the Gospel of Luke, Chapter 15. The father, seated under a canopy, extends his hand in blessing as he bestows his inheritance upon his younger son, who eagerly clutches a money pouch. In the background, the conscience (Conscientia) is shown urging the son to depart, foreshadowing his eventual return, repentance, and forgiveness. This print is part of a series of six woodcuts, each accompanied by a six-line Latin caption. The intricate detail and delicate hand-coloring, added to modernize the costumes, further enhance the visual impact of the scene. The woodcut's rich history is evident in its aged appearance, with the letterpress and lettering adding to its antique charm. The Prodigal Son is a powerful and enduring biblical narrative that explores themes of family, inheritance, and redemption. Cornelis Anthonisz masterfully captures the emotional depth and complexity of this story, making it a valuable addition to any art collection or gallery display focused on Dutch art, biblical depictions, or the history of art and culture in the Low Countries.
