Lot și fiicele sale is an unspecified by Carl Johann, zis Carlotto, zis Carlo Lotti Loth, a Baroque work, held at Brukenthal National Museum.
This painting shows three figures in dim light. The person on the left wears a loose white tunic and holds a dark object. The middle figure, kneeling, has a red cloth draped over their lap and holds a bowl with something inside. The third figure, mostly in shadow, leans in close to the first. The dark background makes the figures stand out sharply. The artist used light and shadow to create a dramatic effect. Look up *chiaroscuro* to learn about this lighting technique.
Carl Johann Loth painted biblical scenes like *Mercur și Argus* and *Lot și fiilele sale* in the late 1600s, when big dramatic stories from the Bible were popular.
