"The Prodigal Son" (Bartsch 28; Meder, Hollstein 28) is a renowned engraving by the German Renaissance artist Albrecht Dürer, created circa 1496. This work is a masterful representation of the biblical parable of the Prodigal Son, which is found in the Gospel of Luke in the New Testament. The parable tells the story of a young man who squanders his inheritance on reckless living and eventually returns home in a state of destitution, only to be warmly welcomed by his forgiving father.

Dürer's engraving captures the moment of the prodigal son's return, emphasizing themes of repentance, forgiveness, and redemption. The composition is marked by its intricate detail and the emotional depth conveyed through the figures' expressions and body language. The prodigal son is depicted in a state of abject humility, kneeling before his father, who extends a gesture of compassion and acceptance. The background features a pastoral landscape, which serves to enhance the narrative and situate the scene within a broader context of rural life.

As with many of Dürer's works, "The Prodigal Son" demonstrates his exceptional skill in the medium of engraving, characterized by precise lines and meticulous attention to texture and form. The engraving is also notable for its use of light and shadow, which adds a dramatic quality to the scene and highlights the emotional intensity of the moment.

Dürer's interpretation of the Prodigal Son parable reflects the humanist values of the Renaissance, emphasizing the potential for personal transformation and the importance of mercy and forgiveness. The work has been widely studied and admired for its artistic and theological significance, and it remains an important example of Dürer's contribution to the art of printmaking.
