Artist: Joachim Wtewael
 1605    Painting

 See Details

This painting is one of several by Wtewael that follow a Dutch tradition of pairing a foreground kitchen scene with a background religious one.

Joachim Anthoniszoon Wtewael (? 1566 – 1 August 1638), also known as Uytewael was a Dutch Mannerist painter and draughtsman,  Wtewael was one of the leading Dutch exponents of Northern Mannerism, and his distinctive and attractive style remained largely untouched by the naturalistic developments happening around him, "characterized by masterfully drawn, highly polished figures often set in capricious poses".

The related scripture is Luke 14:15-24
