![Matthias Stom - Sarah Leading Hagar to Abraham [1637-39]](http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8569/16470046661_430984897a_o.jpg)
Matthias Stom's works of the later 1630s, such as that of barren old Sarah bringing her toothsome maid Hagar to a wary, elderly Abraham so that husband and servant can produce a son, exemplify his choice of sordid and all too human biblical subjects.
