"Die Verspottung des Elisa" (The Mocking of Elisha) is a painting by Jan Brueghel the Younger, a Flemish Baroque painter known for his landscapes and still life works. As the son of Jan Brueghel the Elder and the grandson of Pieter Bruegel the Elder, Jan Brueghel the Younger was part of a dynasty of artists that left a significant mark on the Northern European art scene. This particular painting depicts the biblical story from 2 Kings 2:23-24, where the prophet Elisha is mocked by youths for his baldness as he goes up to the town of Bethel, and in response, he curses them, leading to their mauling by two bears sent by God.

The artwork is characteristic of the detailed and intricate style of the Brueghel family, showcasing the artist's ability to blend narrative elements with a rich natural environment. Jan Brueghel the Younger's rendition of this scene is notable for its vivid portrayal of the landscape and figures, as well as its moralistic undertone, which was a common theme in the art of the Counter-Reformation period.

While the painting's exact date of creation is not well-documented, it is believed to have been produced in the 17th century, during a time when Jan Brueghel the Younger was actively working in Antwerp and continuing the artistic traditions of his family. "Die Verspottung des Elisa" is an example of the artist's religious works, which were less common than his landscapes but nonetheless demonstrate his versatility and adherence to the family's artistic legacy.

The painting's provenance, current location, and critical reception are not specified in this introduction due to the lack of available information. However, as with many works of the Brueghel family, it is likely to be of interest to scholars studying the Baroque period, Flemish art, or the Brueghel artistic lineage.
