Description : Giuseppe in prigione interpreta i sogni

Oil on canvas. The painting tells the biblical episode of the story of Joseph in which the young man, imprisoned in Egyptian prisons after being sold by his brothers, interprets the dreams of two other prisoners, the cupbearer and the baker of the King of Egypt: his ability to interpret dreams will then lead to obtaining the complacency of the Pharaoh. The painting can be attributed in its pictorial modality to a late eighteenth-century author who looks to the style of Johann Carl Loth, a German painter who settled in Italy, who expressed the baroque taste initially adhering to the naturalistic and dark taste of Giovanni Battista Langetti, and then softened the tones around the seventies and in his late maturity. The painting, in the first canvas, presents slight losses of color. It is presented in a nineteenth-century frame.
