Original artwork information by the museum (© Copyright - The Metropolitan Museum of Art - www.metmuseum.org)

The picture illustrates an admonition by Jesus: "And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?” Trained in Rome, Fetti evolved a style of great verve and fluency. In 1614 he moved to Mantua to work for Ferdinando Gonzaga. This picture is one of thirteen illustrations of Gospel parables painted in about 1619 for Ferdinando Gonzaga's studiolo (a small private study, often filled with works of art as well as books).
