Le Prêteur et sa femme (The Moneylender and his Wife) by Quentin Metsys proposes a study of a painting from the Northern Renaissance schools. The monographic approach to this genre scene, set against the backdrop of a religious allegory, is complemented by a suggested themed itinerary through the rooms based on the scale, the mirror, and vanity.
