"Hagar and Ishmael in the Wilderness" is a 1662 oil painting by the Dutch Golden Age painter Karel Dujardin. This artwork depicts the biblical story of Hagar and her son Ishmael, as recounted in the Book of Genesis, chapter 21. In the narrative, Hagar, an Egyptian handmaid of Sarah, Abraham's wife, is cast out into the wilderness with her son Ishmael after the birth of Isaac, Sarah's own son. The painting captures the moment of despair and divine intervention when an angel appears to Hagar to provide comfort and reveal a well of water to save her and her son from dying of thirst.

Dujardin, known for his pastoral scenes and Italianate landscapes, infuses this religious subject with a sense of naturalism and emotional depth. The figures are depicted with a softness and sensitivity that reflect the artist's skill in rendering human emotion and his mastery of light and shadow. The landscape in the painting serves as a dramatic backdrop, emphasizing the vulnerability and isolation of the figures. The work is exemplary of Dujardin's ability to combine narrative with the aesthetic principles of the Dutch Golden Age of painting.

"Hagar and Ishmael in the Wilderness" is significant not only as an example of Dujardin's oeuvre but also as an illustration of the 17th-century Dutch interest in biblical themes that are imbued with a humanistic and empathetic approach. The painting is part of the collection of the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, Netherlands, where it continues to be studied and admired for its artistic and historical value.
