Author: David, Jan, 1545?-1613
Image Title: Many Talents
Description: A king holding a scepter sits at a table bearing money, paper, pen, and hourglass and judges people who are gathered around, including a kneeling man; God sits enthroned between an angel and a demon, who holds on open book; a man kneels before God, while above the throne a banner reads "Return a reckoning." The Latin superscription reads, "By what more you will grasp, that it is greater to return a reckoning," and the text below, "From whom will God demand payment with more interest? From him, to whom many talents have been entrusted.".
