About this work
The prodigal son squanders his inheritance in a brothel. In a garden, he is embraced by a prostitute. Another woman fills his glass. On the left, a dancing woman with tambourines, and on the right, an orchestra. Behind the prodigal son stands a jester. Below the illustration, a reference in Latin to the biblical text in Luke 15:13. This print is part of an album.
