EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from the 17th century depicts a powerful biblical scene - Joseph serving a lavish banquet to his brothers in Egypt. The European School artist beautifully captures the opulence of the feast, showcasing an array of sumptuous dishes and ornate surroundings. The print is part of an unidentified series of Bible prints, believed to have been published by Pierre Mariette in Paris. It offers viewers a glimpse into Genesis 43, where Joseph reveals his true identity to his unsuspecting brothers during this extravagant meal. Intriguingly, amidst the grandeur and abundance, there is also a collie dog present as if standing guard over the proceedings. This inclusion adds depth and symbolism to the artwork, perhaps representing loyalty or protection. The image not only highlights significant Old Testament stories but also provides insight into ancient banqueting customs and traditions. It invites us to contemplate themes such as family reconciliation, forgiveness, and divine providence. As we admire this historical masterpiece captured by Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are reminded of Christianity's rich heritage and its enduring influence on art throughout history. The engraving serves as a visual reminder of Christian values while offering glimpses into life in ancient Egypt.
