Ontmoeting tussen Jakob en Jozef 1683 - 1733

This etching by Bernard Picart, titled "Ontmoeting tussen Jakob en Jozef," depicts the biblical story of Jacob and Joseph's reunion. The scene is framed by ornate rococo flourishes and two cherubs, adding a decorative element to the image. The central oval depicts Jacob falling to his knees before Joseph, who embraces him. This 18th-century artwork, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, offers a glimpse into the rich tradition of biblical storytelling within European art.
