## Commentary

This depiction of the subject derives from Tintoretto&#39;s Last Judgment \(Madonna dell&#39;Orto, Venice\) in both its general composition and individual motifs. Like several other Netherlandish painters, Dirck Barendsz. may have worked in Tintoretto&#39;s studio for a while. There, or in its owner&#39;s house, he would also have seen Tintoretto&#39;s Susanna and the Elders \(Kunsthistorisches Museum, Vienna\), of which he makes use for the female sinner shown being resurrected in the lower part of his composition.
