Opulent Feast

Lot and his daughters by the Dutch Mannerist Painter Abraham Bloemaert (ca.1564-1651). It's surprising all that stuff they saved from burning Sodom.

Dutch Hagar

This painting showing Hagar and her son Ishmael chased away by Abraham is probably from the 1630s and by the Dutch Mannerist Painter Abraham Bloemaert (ca.1564-1651).

Typically for that time is the dutch landscape and the costumes. Bloemaert painted a rich farmer who expeled a servant with his unwished bastard. Only the turban is a reminiscence that the story has happened somewhere in the Orient.
