"The Prodigal Son" (1622) is a significant oil painting by the Dutch Golden Age painter Gerrit van Honthorst, who is renowned for his mastery in using light and shadow to evoke drama and emotion in his works. This painting is an exquisite example of Honthorst's skill in storytelling through art, depicting the biblical parable of the Prodigal Son from the Gospel of Luke. The narrative, which centers on themes of repentance, forgiveness, and unconditional love, is brought to life through Honthorst's dramatic illumination and expressive figures.

"The Prodigal Son" showcases Honthorst's ability to not only capture the physical likeness of his subjects but also their emotional and psychological depth.
