The Parable of Lazarus and the Rich Man, Domenico Fetti (c. 1618–1628)

The Parable of Lazarus and the Rich Man transforms a biblical lesson into vivid moral drama, contrasting the wealth and ease of the rich man with the suffering of Lazarus at his gate. Fetti’s careful use of light and composition guides the viewer between earthly disparity and eternal consequence, emphasizing both the comfort granted to the righteous and the torment awaiting the unmerciful. Domenico Fetti (c. 1589–1623) was an Italian Baroque painter known for blending theatrical realism with spiritual allegory. His work distills complex moral and biblical narratives into intimate, visually compelling scenes, inviting reflection on virtue, compassion, and the ultimate reckoning of human life.
