This print, titled "Ô jeugd! zie in deez' prent / Dat de onschuld somtijds lijdt, / Hoe 't lot van Jozef toont, / Maar God haar redt en loont," by Gerrit Oortman, depicts eight scenes from the biblical story of Joseph. The Dutch artist created this series of engravings between 1814 and 1820, likely using the technique of etching, in which an acid is used to create the lines in the image. The work is an example of narrative art, telling a story through a sequence of images. The artwork is now part of the Rijksmuseum's collection in Amsterdam.
