About this work

A man at a table, before departing on a journey, entrusts his money to three servants. To the first he gives five talents. Behind him, the other two wait. A secretary records the amounts. In the background, the man departs in his carriage. Below the image, a Latin reference to the biblical text in Matthew 25:14. This print is part of an album.
