A servant kneels before his king and begs him to have patience with him so that he has some more time to pay his debt of ten thousand talents. Two creditors point to the man. The king, sitting behind a table, takes pity and forgives him his debt. Under the scene a reference in Latin to the Bible text. This print is part of an album.
