Esta pintura forma parte de una serie de paneles que decoraban el dormitorio del palacio Borgherini en Florencia. Juntos, cuentan la vida de José del Antiguo Testamento (Génesis 43).
José, que había sido vendido como esclavo en Egipto cuando era niño por sus medio hermanos, predijo una hambruna en un sueño que tuvo el faraón y le aconsejó que hiciera acopio de grano. Hecho visir de Egipto, José recibió a sus medios hermanos que venían en busca de grano, pero no lo reconocieron. Los acusó de espiar y exigió que trajeran a su hermano menor a Egipto para probar su honestidad.
En esta pintura, regresan a Egipto con su hermano menor, Benjamín, el niño vestido de azul, y los regalos de su padre. Presentan los regalos a José en el centro, aún sin darse cuenta de que es el hermano que vendieron. José los envía de regreso a casa con una copa preciosa escondida en el saco de Benjamín. El contorno de la copa es visible debajo de la mano de Benjamín.

Kiss a Ginger Day
It’s Kiss a Ginger day and we’re kicking off the day by celebrating redheads in art history. Like this painting of two lovers in Gustav Klimt’s The Kiss in the Austrian Gallery at Belvedere, appreciation of ginger beauties and their glorious red locks can be spotted throughout Art History. Here are the most glamorous redheads of art history.
Starting off the list of famous redheads in Art History is Bottecelli’s redhead that is the literal embodiment of beauty as the goddess Venus.

The next babe with flaming tresses and the sheer outfit to match is Frederic Leighton’s Flaming June. The model for this painting was probably Dorothy Dene or Mary Lloyd, either way she is living her best life getting paid to sleep on the job.

Number 3 on our list is the artist Van Gogh himself in a selfie with reddish orange hair highlighted against the blue-green background. The man knew his complimentary colors.

Our next ginger vixen is depicted raising a toast to her lover off to war. Or perhaps it’s a cheers to the haters slandering gingers.

Causing quite the controversy during her debut is Sargent’s Madame X. Originally featured with a fallen strap, critics were so harsh about that bare shoulder that Sargent was forced to go into hiding.

Next up is Louise Webber in Toulouse-Lautrec’s The Glutton at the Moulin Rouge. Known for her wild moves and sometimes transparent outfits, fierce is an understatement when describing this woman.

Egon Schiele, Klimt’s protégé, dated so many redheads that we’re not sure which one is depicted here in this painting.

Number 8 features contemporary artist Thomas Darsney’s redhead in Tapestry.

Modigliani painted an inquisitive figure in his Young Man with Red Hair. Turns out it’s much harder to find men with red hair in art history than female redheads.

Last but not least is Francesco Bacchiacca’s Sibyl with the not-so-subtle nip slip. Apparently Sibyl is also a fan of the transparent clothing making her third on our list of Art History redheads who love sheer clothing.
