"Potiphar's wife accusing Joseph to have attempted to seduce her, in front of her husband; the young woman sits on a chair at centre and addresses Potiphar, who stands at [right]; Joseph stands at [left]; after a drawing formerly attributed to Rembrandt."--British Museum online catalogue, description of the Caylus etching from which this print was copied
Alternative Title:
Femme de Putiphar accuse Joseph devant son mari
Description:
Title supplied by cataloger., Text below title, lightly printed and only partially legible: La femme [de Putiphar accuse] Joseph devant son mari., According to Nicholas J.S. Knowles, the handwriting on the plate and a few stylistic clues point to Thomas Rowlandson as printmaker. Knowles posits that Rowlandson copied a print by Caylus (IFF 378(6).II; British Museum online catalogue, registration no.: 1865,0208.6) rather than copying the original drawing formerly attributed to Rembrandt (currently in the Louvre, inventory number: NV 22908, Recto). Rowlandson made a series of reproductive prints after old master prints starting from about 1783, and Knowles suggests an early- to mid-1780s date for creation of this particular plate., and Late-20th century restrike on modern paper, with pencil annotation "TR/RP/80" in lower right that suggests a 1980 printing date. The copper plate would have been in the possession of the successor Leadenhall Press in England at the time, according to Nicholas J.S. Knowles.

Joseph (Son of Jacob), and Potiphar's wife (Biblical figure),
A volume of etchings by three daughters of art collector John Ingram 1767-1841) of Staindrop Hall in County Durham: Elizabeth Christian Ingram (born 1795), Caroline Ingram (1800-1819), and Augusta Isabella Ingram (born 1802). The family lived in Venice and took instruction from Venetian etcher Francesco Novelli whose own etchings were in manner of Rembrandt and whose influence can be seen in the sisters' etchings. The style of the various impressions is very similar and were apparently made within a fairly short period if the dated prints are an accurate indication; some of the prints bound in first are dated February 1816 and then March 1816. This dating seems to be confirmed by a contemporary inscription on the front free endpaper: "These are the works of the Miss Ingrams' from their first lesson, 18..." Only five of the prints are unsigned; several prints in multiple impressions or two or more states, using brown and black inks and various stocks of paper, a few bearing a British watermark and date of 1814. Some of the prints have been mounted, but most have been printed directly on contiguous leaves forming the signatures of the volume
