"The Money Lenders" is a painting by the Flemish Renaissance artist Marinus van Reymerswaele, created in the 16th century. This work is one of several by Reymerswaele that depict figures involved in financial transactions, a subject that reflects the growing importance of commerce and the rise of a money economy during the period. The painting is known for its meticulous detail and its satirical portrayal of its subjects, often interpreted as a critique of avarice and the corruption associated with money lending.

The composition typically features two central figures, identified as money lenders or tax collectors, surrounded by the tools of their trade: coins, ledgers, and scales. The figures are often depicted with caricatured features, which serve to emphasize their greed and lack of moral character. Reymerswaele's attention to the textures of materials, from the sheen of metal to the quality of fabrics, adds a layer of realism to the work, despite the exaggerated features of the subjects.

"The Money Lenders" by Marinus van Reymerswaele exists in several versions, with the most famous ones held in prominent museum collections, including the National Gallery in London and the Museo del Prado in Madrid. These paintings are considered important examples of Northern Renaissance art, offering insight into the social attitudes and economic conditions of the time.

As an artist, Marinus van Reymerswaele (c. 1490 – c. 1546) was known for his detailed and often moralizing works. He likely trained in the workshop of the master painter Quentin Matsys and was influenced by the works of Hieronymus Bosch. Reymerswaele's paintings, including "The Money Lenders," continue to be studied for their historical context, artistic technique, and social commentary.
