"Joseph Recognized by His Brothers" is a 1789 painting by the French artist Charles Thévenin. The painting depicts the climactic moment from the biblical story of Joseph, found in the Book of Genesis, when Joseph reveals his true identity to his brothers who had previously sold him into slavery. Thévenin's work is a classic example of history painting, a genre that was highly valued during the Neoclassical period for its ability to convey moral lessons and noble sentiments through depictions of historical, mythological, or biblical scenes.

In the painting, Thévenin captures the emotional intensity of the reunion, with Joseph portrayed as a figure of magnanimity and forgiveness, while his brothers react with a mixture of shock, relief, and penitence. The artist's use of lighting, composition, and gesture heightens the drama of the scene and reflects the influence of his contemporaries and the prevailing artistic trends of the time.

Charles Thévenin (1764-1838) was a prominent French painter who became known for his historical and revolutionary subjects. He studied under the renowned Jacques-Louis David and was later appointed as the curator of the Louvre Museum. "Joseph Recognized by His Brothers" is one of Thévenin's significant works and exemplifies his skill in conveying complex narratives through his art. The painting is an important piece within Thévenin's oeuvre and contributes to the understanding of Neoclassical painting in the context of the French Revolution and its aftermath.

The painting is held in a public collection, allowing viewers to appreciate Thévenin's contribution to the arts and the cultural storytelling of the period. It serves as a testament to the enduring power of biblical narratives in Western art and the ability of artists like Thévenin to reinterpret these stories for their contemporaries.
