Lot #70: Joseph and His Brothers

A stylized biblical scene depicting Joseph and his brothers, rendered in a linear, illustrative style with strong black outlines and minimal shading. The composition presents a sequence of figures in traditional robes, arranged in a narrative progression. One central figure stands out, draped in a multicolored garment, symbolizing Joseph’s famous “coat of many colors.” The restrained palette—primarily monochrome with selective color accents—draws attention to this focal point while maintaining a cohesive visual rhythm across the group. The work reflects mid-20th-century printmaking aesthetics, combining religious storytelling with modern graphic simplicity. Visible aging and wear to the paper contribute to its vintage character.
