863. THE RICH MAN IN HELL.

_Teniers_ (Flemish: 1610-1694). _See 154._

The sequel to the story of Dives and Lazarus. "And it came to pass,

that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham's

bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried. And in hell he lift

up his eyes, being in torments" (Luke xvi. 22, 23). A favourite

subject with Teniers, giving him an opportunity for painting comic

monstrosities.
