"Joseph and the Wife of Potiphar" is a compelling 1649 painting by the Italian Baroque artist Giovanni Francesco Barbieri, more commonly known as Guercino. This work exemplifies Guercino's mastery in employing dramatic chiaroscuro and dynamic composition to convey intense emotional narratives, hallmarks of the Baroque period. The painting depicts a pivotal moment from the biblical story of Joseph, as recounted in the Book of Genesis. In this narrative, Joseph, a Hebrew servant in the house of Potiphar, an Egyptian official, is confronted by Potiphar's wife, who attempts to seduce him. Joseph's steadfast refusal and subsequent flight from her advances are captured with vivid immediacy in Guercino's work.

Guercino's interpretation of this scene is notable for its psychological depth and the artist's ability to convey the moral fortitude of Joseph against the backdrop of temptation and false accusation. The composition is marked by the dramatic interplay of light and shadow, which not only heightens the tension but also underscores the moral dichotomy between the virtuous Joseph and the scheming wife of Potiphar. The artist's use of rich, warm colors and fluid, expressive brushstrokes further enhances the emotional intensity of the scene.

The painting is also significant for its reflection of the cultural and religious values of the time, emphasizing themes of virtue, chastity, and divine providence. Guercino's work was highly regarded during his lifetime, and "Joseph and the Wife of Potiphar" remains a testament to his skill in narrative painting and his ability to infuse biblical stories with a sense of immediacy and human drama. Today, this painting is housed in the collection of the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., where it continues to be admired for its artistic and historical significance.
