"Susanna und die Alten" (Susanna and the Elders) is a notable oil painting by Flemish Renaissance artist Jan Massys, also known as Jan Matsys. Created in the 16th century, this work is an interpretation of the biblical story of Susanna, a narrative from the Book of Daniel. The story tells of a virtuous woman, Susanna, who is spied upon by two elders while she is bathing. When she rebuffs their advances, they falsely accuse her of adultery, leading to a trial where her innocence is eventually proven by the young prophet Daniel.

Massys, born in Antwerp in 1510 as the son of the famous painter Quentin Massys, was known for his detailed and often sensuous portrayals of figures, which is evident in "Susanna und die Alten." The painting reflects the Mannerist style that was becoming popular in the Northern Renaissance, characterized by elongated figures and an emphasis on elegance and sophistication. Massys' rendition of the subject is particularly noted for its intricate depiction of textures and the lush, vibrant landscape that serves as the backdrop for the dramatic encounter.

The artwork is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its cultural and historical context. It reflects the moral and social themes of the time, such as the examination of virtue, the abuse of power, and the role of divine justice. "Susanna und die Alten" has been studied for its portrayal of gender dynamics and the male gaze, making it a subject of interest in both art history and feminist studies.

The painting has been part of various collections over the centuries and has been exhibited in several museums, contributing to the understanding of the Northern Renaissance and the oeuvre of Jan Massys. As with many works of this period, it continues to be analyzed for its technique, symbolism, and narrative content, offering insights into the era's artistic trends and societal concerns.
