Job Tormented by Demons and Abused by His Wife

Lucas Emil Vorsterman after Sir Peter Paul Rubens

National Gallery of Art

This is a print of a scene featuring a man surrounded by three demonic creatures. The creatures appear to be lifting him upwards, and his head is thrown back, his arms raised to either side. The demons have pointed ears, horns, sharp teeth, and bat-like wings. One holds a snake while another appears to hold a fiery whip. The central man is nude except for a cloth that is wrapped around his waist, and he is surrounded by rubble, including broken beams and shattered stones. On the right, a woman stands beside the man, looking towards him. She has wrinkled skin and a cloth covering her head. Below the print are two lines of text.
