"Le Retour du Fils Prodigue" (The Return of the Prodigal Son) is an oil painting by the Dutch artist Aert de Gelder, created in the late 17th century. As a pupil of Rembrandt, De Gelder was deeply influenced by his master's dramatic use of light and shadow, as well as his focus on biblical and historical subjects. This painting depicts the biblical parable of the Prodigal Son, as told in the Gospel of Luke, where a wayward son who squandered his inheritance returns home to his father, who receives him with forgiveness and celebration.

The work is notable for its emotional depth and the use of chiaroscuro, a technique that De Gelder inherited from Rembrandt, which emphasizes the contrast between light and dark to create a sense of volume and depth. "Le Retour du Fils Prodigue" is a prime example of De Gelder's mature style, showcasing his ability to convey complex human emotions and his preference for rich, vibrant colors.

Aert de Gelder (1645–1727) was among the last of Rembrandt's students and remained faithful to his teacher's style long after it had fallen out of fashion, making him a unique figure in the Dutch Golden Age of painting. His works, including "Le Retour du Fils Prodigue," are considered important for understanding the transition from the high baroque to the more sentimental and painterly rococo style that would dominate the 18th century.

The painting is held in a private collection or a museum, and it continues to be studied for its artistic and historical significance, as well as its testament to the enduring influence of Rembrandt's teachings.
