Lot and His Daughters is a c.1520 oil on panel painting.[1] It was produced by an unknown artist working in Leiden or Antwerp, though it was long attributed to Lucas van Leyden.[2] It is now in the Louvre, having entered its collection in 1900.[3][4] It is the subject of Antonin Artaud's famous essay "Metaphysics and the Mise en Scène."
