"Parable of the Lost Drachma" is a baroque-era oil painting created by the Italian artist Domenico Fetti between 1618 and 1622. The artwork is a visual interpretation of the Parable of the Lost Coin, a biblical story from the Gospel of Luke that illustrates the joy of God over the repentance of a sinner. Fetti's painting is part of a series of works that depict various parables from the New Testament, a project he undertook during his time in Mantua under the patronage of Ferdinando Gonzaga, the Duke of Mantua.

The painting measures 94.6 cm by 74.3 cm and is currently housed in the Gemäldegalerie Alte Meister in Dresden, Germany. Fetti's composition showcases his mastery of chiaroscuro and his ability to convey emotion through expressive figures and dynamic use of light and shadow. The central figure in the painting is a woman, representing the parable's protagonist, who is depicted in the act of searching for the lost coin, symbolizing the sinner. The attention to detail in the woman's facial expression and the surrounding domestic setting reflects the influence of the Venetian school, particularly the works of Titian and Veronese, on Fetti's artistic development.

"Parable of the Lost Drachma" is notable for its dramatic storytelling and the way it captures the viewer's attention, drawing them into the narrative moment. Fetti's use of color and texture adds to the painting's emotional impact, making it a significant example of his narrative and pictorial skills. The work is an important piece within Fetti's oeuvre and contributes to the understanding of baroque religious art and its role in conveying complex theological themes through visual means.
