Summary

edit
Description
English: The story of Yusuf and Zulaikha, according to Racinet (1876 ed.); *a very large scan of this engraving (1888 edition)*

Source: ebay, Nov. 2005

"A facsimile of a painting representing Joseph and Zuléïka, the woman of Putiphar, which, having spoken to the women of her house of the vivid beauty of Joseph, presents him so that they can judge by themselves. These women, occupied by peeling the oranges, are struck by the beauty of the young man; one of them even dropped her peeling knife. This scene is one of the favorite topics of the Indian painters, which they often treat in their works of art. (The original of this miniature is part of the library of M. Ambroise Firmin-Didot.)."
