Oil on canvas. This is a smaller reproduction of the original painting by Rembrandt in 1656, displayed today at the Gemäldegalerie Alte Meister in Kassel. The scene portrays the episode told in the Book of Genesis: Jacob, on his deathbed and now blind, lays his hands on the two sons of Joseph, born in the land of Egypt, including them in the plan of salvation to which God had called Abraham, Isaac and all of their descendants. The painting has many but small paint losses and small scratches, that need restoration.
