Book illustration of the parable of the workers in the vineyard (Matthew 20). In the background, workers are hired to work in the vineyard. In the foreground, the workers are paid at the end of the day with a denarius each from a pouch of gold. Some workers protest because they have worked longer than the others, but the landowner is implacable. The print includes a caption with a reference to the accompanying Bible passage, Parable of the Workers in the Vineyard Scenes from the Bible Biblia Sacra , print maker: Abraham de Bruyn, Crispijn van den Broeck, (mentioned on object), Antwerp, 1583
