About this work

A hand-coloured mezzotint print titled The Prodigal Son Returns Reclaim'd, dated 1775 and attributed to John Raphael Smith. A richly dressed older man in a blue coat and tricorn hat reaches toward a ragged younger man in a red waistcoat and blue breeches, who covers his face, while a kneeling figure and a dog gather in the foreground beside a standing woman in a fur-trimmed shawl.
