EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Josep Sold by his Brethren," is an exquisite illustration from the Dore Bible Illustrations, a renowned 19th-century collection of biblical art. The scene depicted in this image comes from the biblical book of Genesis, specifically chapter 37, verse 38. In this poignant episode of the Old Testament, the beloved son of Jacob, Joseph, is sold into slavery by his own jealous brethren. Joseph, known for his vibrant dreams and his father's favoritism, had provoked his siblings' anger and resentment. They could not bear to see him rise above them and decided to eliminate him from their midst. In this illustration, we see Joseph being led away by his brothers, with his father Jacob's coat of many colors draped over his shoulders. The coat, a symbol of his favored status, is a cruel reminder of the deception his brothers are about to carry out. The scene is set against the backdrop of a barren, rocky landscape, with the sun setting in the distance. This illustration, created by the skilled hand of Gustave Doré, masterfully captures the emotions and tension of this pivotal moment in the story of Joseph. The intricate details, rich colors, and dramatic lighting transport us back to ancient Egypt, immersing us in the sacred history of the Hebrew people and the complexities of human relationships. Whether you are a student of history, religion, or art, this illustration offers a unique window into the past, inviting us to reflect on the timeless themes of family, jealousy, and forgiveness. It is a testament to the enduring power of storytelling and the beauty of artistic expression.
