"The Seven Deadly Sins and the Four Last Things" is a painting attributed to Hieronymus Bosch, or to a follower of his, completed around 1480. The artwork is a visual representation of the seven deadly sins of Christian doctrine, which are wrath, greed, sloth, pride, lust, envy, and gluttony. Each sin is depicted in a circular layout that is centered around the eye of God, which is shown observing the sins of the world. The eye is inscribed with the Latin phrase "Cave Cave Deus Videt" translating to "Beware, Beware, God Sees." Surrounding the central circle are four smaller circles that illustrate the 'Four Last Things' according to Christian eschatology: Death, Judgment, Heaven, and Hell.

The painting is executed in oil on wood and is structured as a tabletop, which was a common practice in the Northern Renaissance for didactic household items. Bosch's work is known for its intricate symbolism and moral messages, and "The Seven Deadly Sins" is no exception. It serves as a moral compass of sorts, reminding viewers of the consequences of succumbing to sinful behaviors. The piece is currently housed in the Museo del Prado, Madrid, and remains an important example of Northern Renaissance art, reflecting the period's preoccupation with sin, morality, and salvation.

The attribution of the painting to Bosch has been a subject of debate among art historians, with some suggesting that it may have been produced by a member of Bosch's workshop or by a follower after his death. Despite this, the painting's style and thematic content are consistent with Bosch's known body of work, which is characterized by its use of fantastical imagery to convey religious and moral concepts. The painting's didactic purpose, complex iconography, and the distinctive manner in which it addresses themes of human vice and virtue continue to fascinate scholars and the public alike.
