About this work

On the left, on a rock, Abraham proposes to Lot that they separate. They look out over a valley with livestock and shepherds in the foreground who are quarreling over the shortage of land (Gen. 13:8-12). With a motto in Latin above the image and a four-line inscription in Latin below the print. The print is part of an album.
