EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Joseph's Coat" takes us back to the biblical story of Joseph and his famous coat of many colors. In this image, we witness a powerful moment as Jacob, Joseph's father, discovers his blood-stained coat and believes that his beloved son has been killed by a wild animal. The scene is beautifully captured in an engraving from Cassell's Illustrated Family Bible, which features over nine hundred meticulously crafted engravings. This particular edition was published in the 19th century by Cassell, Petter & Galpin in London, Paris, and New York. The significance of Joseph's coat lies not only in its vibrant colors but also in its symbolism. It represents the favoritism shown towards Joseph by his father and becomes a catalyst for jealousy among his brothers. This tale can be found in Genesis chapter XXXVII of the Bible. As we delve into this mesmerizing artwork from Lebrecht History collection dating back to the 19th century, we are reminded of the enduring power of religious texts like the Bible. The influence they have had on literature and artistic expression throughout history cannot be overstated. Through this evocative image, we are transported to ancient times when faith played a central role in people's lives. It serves as a reminder of our shared cultural heritage and invites contemplation on themes such as family dynamics, betrayal, forgiveness, and divine providence. "Bridgeman Images" has skillfully preserved this historical treasure without commercial intent or mention thereof. Let us appreciate their dedication to preserving art that enriches our understanding of both religious narratives and human experience itself.
