"Tabletop of the Seven Deadly Sins and the Four Last Things" is a painting attributed to the Early Netherlandish master Hieronymus Bosch, or to a follower of his workshop. Created sometime between 1500 and 1525, this oil on wood panel work is known for its detailed depiction of human morality and the Christian concept of judgment. The painting is currently housed in the Museo del Prado in Madrid, Spain, and is considered one of Bosch's most intriguing and complex works.

The painting is circular in form, resembling a tabletop, which is where it derives its name. It is divided into several compartments, with the central area illustrating the Seven Deadly Sins: wrath, greed, sloth, pride, lust, envy, and gluttony. Each sin is represented by a scene of everyday life in the late medieval period, providing a moralistic warning of the consequences of sinful behavior. In the center of this tableau is the eye of God, with Christ watching over humanity, and a Latin inscription that translates to "Beware, Beware, God Sees."

Surrounding the central panel are four smaller circles, each depicting one of the Four Last Things: Death, Judgment, Heaven, and Hell. These are fundamental themes in Christian eschatology, representing the ultimate fate of the soul. The corners of the painting, outside the circular center, contain depictions of the phrases "Cave Cave Deus Videt" (Beware, Beware, God Sees), reinforcing the overarching theme of divine judgment.

The authorship of "Tabletop of the Seven Deadly Sins and the Four Last Things" has been a subject of debate among art historians. While some attribute it directly to Bosch, others suggest it may have been executed by a member of his workshop or a follower closely imitating his style. Despite this uncertainty, the painting remains a significant example of Northern Renaissance art, reflecting the period's preoccupation with sin, morality, and the afterlife. Its allegorical content, intricate detail, and moral message are characteristic of Bosch's oeuvre, making it an important piece for understanding the cultural and religious context of the time.
