This unfinished painting may have been conceived as part of a series devoted to the story of the Old Testament patriarch Joseph, who is seen here standing in a grand Renaissance palace, interpreting the dreams of Pharaoh (Genesis 41:14–36).The materials and technique employed—a water-based medium on ungrounded fine-weave canvas, called by the German term Tüchlein—account for the picture’s subdued tonality and matte surface as well as its worn condition. Such Tüchlein offered a common lightweight and economical alternative to both large-scale panel paintings and tapestries, but their disadvantage was their susceptibility to deterioration and damage.
