The Brazen Serpent is a 1618-1620 oil on canvas painting by Anthony van Dyck, now in the Museo del Prado in Madrid. Its shows a scene from the Old Testament (Numbers 21: 6–9). It was first recorded in 1764, when it was chosen from Juan Kelly's collection in Madrid for Charles III of Spain by Anton Raphael Mengs. Scientific examination of the work has shown that he combined wet and dry medium for the work.
