"Nathan Exhorting David (2 Samuel 12:1-13)" is a significant painting by the Dutch Golden Age artist Ferdinand Bol, a pupil of Rembrandt. The artwork, which dates from the 17th century, depicts the biblical story of the prophet Nathan confronting King David about his sin with Bathsheba, as narrated in the Book of Samuel in the Old Testament. In this dramatic scene, Nathan tells David the parable of the rich man who took the poor man's only lamb, leading David to pronounce judgment upon himself, not realizing that the story is a metaphor for his own actions.

Ferdinand Bol was known for his historical and biblical scenes, often imbued with a strong moral message and executed with a mastery of chiaroscuro and a keen sense of human emotion, likely influenced by his teacher Rembrandt. "Nathan Exhorting David" is exemplary of Bol's work during his mature period, showcasing his skill in composition, use of light, and psychological insight.

The painting is a masterful representation of the moment of confrontation and realization, capturing the tension and the gravity of the encounter between the prophet and the king. Bol's depiction of the figures reflects the influence of his mentor, particularly in the rendering of facial expressions and the interplay of light and shadow.

As an important work of Dutch Golden Age painting, "Nathan Exhorting David" not only demonstrates Bol's artistic talents but also serves as a cultural artifact that offers insight into the religious and moralistic themes that were prevalent in the art of the period. The painting is held in high regard for its historical significance, its contribution to the understanding of Rembrandt's influence on his students, and its place within the broader context of European art history.
