EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th century drawing by Gustave Dore depicts the Old Testament episode of Joseph interpreting Pharaoh's dreams. The scene unfolds in ancient Egypt, where Pharaoh, seated on his ornate throne, gazes intently at Joseph, who stands before him, his hands gesturing as he recounts the symbolic meanings hidden within Pharaoh's dreams. The dream, which had left Pharaoh and his court perplexed, was crucial in saving Egypt from impending famine. Joseph, a Hebrew slave at the time, had been gifted with the divine ability to interpret dreams, a talent that ultimately led him to rise to the position of second-in-command in Pharaoh's court. This powerful image, drawn by the renowned French artist Gustave Dore, transports us back to a time of intrigue, history, and biblical significance. The intricate details of the drawing, from the rich textures of the Egyptian fabrics to the expressive facial features of the characters, bring this Old Testament episode to life, making it a must-have for any collection of religious or historical art.
