EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating engraving titled "Apres la mort de Joseph, ses freres firent embaumer son corps" transports us back to ancient times, depicting a significant moment from the biblical narrative. Created by the French School in the 19th century, this print showcases an episode from the Old Testament's Book of Genesis. Intriguingly, after Joseph's passing, his brothers undertook the solemn task of embalming his body. This act of preserving their brother's corpse is beautifully captured in this artwork and serves as a testament to their deep love and respect for him. This image was originally featured in "La Bible Populaire" an illustrated edition of the Old Testament published by Hachette in 1864. The digital restoration has breathed new life into this historical masterpiece while maintaining its original essence. As we gaze upon this scene, we are reminded of both mortality and familial bonds that transcend time. It invites contemplation on themes such as death, mourning rituals, and the power of kinship. Bridgeman Images presents us with yet another remarkable piece from their collection - a visual treasure that allows us to immerse ourselves in biblical history and appreciate artistry that endures through centuries.
