Christ driving the moneychangers from the Temple

Pietersz, Pieter the Younger (1578-1631)

The subject was mentioned in all four Gospels and was extremely popular in the Baroque period. The artist has adapted the well worn theme by introducing farm produce, rather than the money essential to the Bible stories.
