Painting titled Christ in the House of Martha and Mary, painted in 1654 by Johannes Vermeer, a Dutch painter of the Baroque style. This work is considered an exception in Vermeer's career, being his only canvas inspired by a religious theme. The biblical scene depicted is from the Gospel of Saint Luke (10, 38-42), which tells of Jesus' visit to the house of the sisters Martha and Mary, one of whom stays listening to the teacher, while the other busies herself arranging the house.
Currently, it is located at National Galleries of Scotland.
