EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts a significant moment from the biblical story of Joseph in prison. In this illustration, created by the French School in the late 19th century, we witness Joseph explaining the dreams of the chief baker and chief butler to them. The scene is taken from a catechism called "L Histoire Sainte" published by Charles Delagrave in Paris. Joseph, an employee of Pharaoh who was wrongfully imprisoned, stands tall and confident as he interprets these dreams for his fellow prisoners. With his long beard and turban, he exudes wisdom and authority. The chains that bind him serve as a reminder of his unjust captivity. The image beautifully captures both the religious and educational aspects of this biblical tale. It serves as a visual aid for children's religious education, providing them with an engaging illustration to better understand this important story from Genesis. The vibrant colors used in this lithograph bring life to every detail - from Joseph's flowing robes to the straw-covered floor of their cell. This artwork not only showcases exceptional artistic skill but also reflects on themes such as faith, imprisonment, interpretation, and divine intervention. As we gaze upon this thought-provoking print from Bridgeman Images' collection at Bibliotheque des Arts Decoratifs in Paris, France; we are reminded of Joseph's resilience amidst adversity and how even within confinement one can find purpose through helping others.
