This 19th-century print by Alexander Cranendoncq tells the story of Joseph from the Bible. "Zie hier in dit tafreel hoe 't lot van Jozef toont, / Hoe soms de onschuld lijdt, maar God haar ook betoont," or “Behold in this scene how the fate of Joseph is shown, / How sometimes innocence suffers, but God also shows it," is the title of this artwork, which was printed between 1850 and 1885. It is a typical example of the *illustrated Bible* genre popular in the 19th century. The artwork depicts the story of Joseph in 12 separate panels. Cranendoncq's artistic style, characterized by the use of engraved lines and black and white ink, creates a sense of drama and tension. This artwork is a unique example of the artist’s work and can be found in the collection of the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
