Painting Description
"Joseph Sold into Slavery by his Brothers" (1900) is a significant painting by the Hungarian artist Károly Ferenczy (1862–1917), a leading figure in the Nagybánya artists' colony and often referred to as the "father of Hungarian impressionism." This work is an interpretation of the biblical story of Joseph, a tale from the Book of Genesis, which has been a recurrent theme in the history of art.
In this painting, Ferenczy captures the dramatic moment when Joseph, favored by his father Jacob, is betrayed by his jealous brothers and sold to passing merchants who would take him to Egypt. The artwork reflects Ferenczy's skill in combining elements of impressionism with the narrative drive of historical painting. His use of light and color to convey emotion and the psychological intensity of the scene is characteristic of his mature style.
The composition of "Joseph Sold into Slavery by his Brothers" is notable for its dynamic arrangement of figures and the expressive gestures that convey the turmoil of the event. Ferenczy's treatment of the subject matter is both personal and universal, exploring themes of betrayal, family dynamics, and destiny.
As a central piece within Ferenczy's oeuvre, this painting not only exemplifies his artistic achievements but also provides insight into the cultural and religious influences present in Hungarian art at the turn of the 20th century. The work is often analyzed in the context of the Nagybánya artists' colony's impact on the development of modern Hungarian art, as well as the broader European art movements of the time.
"Joseph Sold into Slavery by his Brothers" is held in high regard by art historians and critics and continues to be studied for its stylistic qualities and its place within the narrative of Hungarian art history. The painting is part of the collection of the Hungarian National Gallery, where it remains accessible to the public and serves as a testament to Ferenczy's enduring legacy in the art world.
