Lot and His Daughters

Master S

National Gallery of Art

The image depicts a circular scene with three people dressed in medieval attire. In the foreground, two seated figures are shown from head to their legs. The man has a beard, wearing a multi-layered garment and a hat. The woman beside him has braided hair and a detailed dress. Standing beside them is a woman seen from head to toe, with her hair styled back and wearing an elaborate dress with ornamental sleeves, while holding a ladle over a basin. Jewelry is visible on the seated woman. The background shows a landscape with a body of water, a sailing ship, a burning city with tall towers and flames. An animal resembling a dog and a large decorated jug are seen in the foreground.
