About this work
Under a tree sits the veiled Tamar with her father-in-law Judah, who does not recognize her and thinks she is a prostitute. He gives her his signet ring and staff as a pledge for the young goat with which he will pay her. On the right in the background are the sheep and shepherds of Judah, and on the left a city. At the bottom in the margin a verse in Latin.
