Job hears the bad news from four messengers

Job hears from four messengers of the calamity that has befallen him. Behind him stands his wife, who holds a handkerchief to her face. In the landscape, Job's cattle and camels are seen being stolen, lightning strikes his shepherds and cattle, and the house where Job's children were feasting collapses in the storm.
