Joseph and His Brothers is a 1745 ink by Joseph Wagner, a Baroque work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This print shows four men in a wooded scene. One older man in a turban stands with his arm around a younger man holding a staff. A third man gestures toward them, while a fourth leans against a tree, looking down. The background has trees, bushes, and a rocky path. The artist used fine lines to create texture in the clothing and leaves, typical of detailed prints. The scene looks like a moment of conversation or reunion. Next, look up etching to see how artists like Wagner made prints like this.
