The Prodigal Son (Italian: Il figliol prodigo) is a painting by the Greek-born Italian artist Giorgio de Chirico. It is painted in tempera on canvas and was completed in 1922[1] as de Chirico was in transition from the Metaphysical style of his earlier works to the neoclassicism he essayed in the 1920s.[2] The biblical subject matter is interpreted by de Chirico as a stone effigy of a father placing his hand on the shoulder of a mannequin representing the son.[3] The dimensions of the painting are 87 by 59 centimeters. It is housed at Museo del Novecento, Milan, Italy.[4]
