"Jacob Receiving the Tunic of His Son" is a painting by the French artist William-Adolphe Bouguereau, created in 1863. Bouguereau was a traditionalist whose realistic genre paintings and mythological themes were modern interpretations of classical subjects, both pagan and Christian. His work was characterized by a highly finished, technically virtuosic style that emphasized the human form.

The painting depicts a scene from the biblical story of Joseph, as recounted in the Book of Genesis. In the narrative, Joseph's brothers, envious of the favoritism shown by their father Jacob, sell Joseph into slavery. They then present Jacob with Joseph's tunic, stained with the blood of a goat, to deceive their father into believing that his favorite son has been killed by a wild animal.

Bouguereau's interpretation of this poignant moment captures the emotional intensity of the scene. The artwork focuses on the figure of Jacob, who is shown in a state of despair as he recognizes the tunic and grieves for his lost son. The surrounding figures, presumably Joseph's brothers, are portrayed with various expressions of guilt, regret, and sorrow, highlighting the complex familial dynamics and the gravity of their deception.

The painting is an example of Bouguereau's mastery in rendering the human form and his ability to convey deep emotion through facial expressions and body language. His use of color, light, and composition all serve to draw the viewer into the narrative, making the biblical story resonate with the contemporary audience of his time.

"Jacob Receiving the Tunic of His Son" is a testament to Bouguereau's skill as a storyteller through the medium of paint, and it remains an important work within the canon of 19th-century French academic art. The painting is held in a private collection, and it continues to be studied and admired for its technical excellence and its evocative portrayal of a timeless biblical tale.
