About this work

Joseph stands before his father Jacob and tells him his dreams, the brothers listen in. In the background Joseph lies sleeping in his bed. His dream of the sheaves of corn and the sun, moon and stars bowing before him, is visible through a window. First print of three with the story of Joseph.
