About this work
Joseph stands next to the bed of the Pharaoh who is tormented by dreams. The room where the Pharaoh is located is depicted as a kind of gallery from where he and Joseph look at two events in the dreams. In the front left the fat cows are eaten by the lean cows; on the right the thin ears bend towards the thick ears.
