EDITORS COMMENTS
Pier Francesco Mola's enchanting etching, "Joseph and his Brethren," dating back to the seventeenth century, transports us to the Old Testament narrative from the Book of Genesis. The scene depicts Joseph, the favored son of Jacob, revealing his true identity to his shocked and disbelieving brothers. Joseph, dressed in rich robes and a turban, stands confidently before his brothers, who recoil in fear and astonishment. The brothers had sold Joseph into slavery years ago, unaware that he had risen to become a powerful Egyptian official. The intricate details in this black and white etching on cream laid paper highlight the emotional intensity and dramatic tension of the moment. The brothers' expressions of shock, disbelief, and guilt are masterfully captured, as is Joseph's calm and forgiving demeanor. This powerful depiction of family reconciliation is a testament to the enduring themes of the human experience, and a beautiful addition to any art collection or exhibition. Pier Francesco Mola, an Italian artist from Lugano, expertly uses the medium of etching to bring this biblical story to life, offering a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of the past.
