"Lot and His Daughters" is a notable painting by the Dutch Golden Age artist Cornelis Pietersz. Bega, who was active during the mid-17th century. Bega, born in 1631 and passing in 1664, was a painter, draughtsman, and etcher known for his genre scenes that often depicted everyday life with a touch of moralistic undertones. His works are characterized by their detailed realism and often somber tones, reflecting the influence of his teacher, Adriaen van Ostade.

The painting "Lot and His Daughters" illustrates a biblical story from the Book of Genesis. The narrative recounts the aftermath of the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, where Lot and his daughters take refuge in a cave. Believing they are the last humans on Earth, Lot's daughters intoxicate him and engage in incestuous relations to preserve their family line. This dramatic and morally complex subject has been a recurring theme in Western art, allowing artists to explore themes of sin, redemption, and human frailty.

Bega's rendition of this story is notable for its intimate and somewhat somber portrayal. The composition typically features Lot in a state of inebriation, with his daughters attending to him, often with expressions of concern or determination. The setting is usually a dark, enclosed space, emphasizing the isolation and desperation of the characters. Bega's use of chiaroscuro—contrasting light and dark—enhances the dramatic tension of the scene.

While Bega's oeuvre includes many genre scenes of peasant life, "Lot and His Daughters" stands out for its biblical subject matter, showcasing his versatility and ability to handle complex narratives. The painting is a testament to Bega's skill in rendering human emotion and his keen interest in the moral dimensions of his subjects. Today, Bega's works, including "Lot and His Daughters," are appreciated for their technical mastery and their insightful commentary on human nature.
