About the piece
Created in 1816 by Philipp Veit, this work captures the dramatic biblical scene of Joseph fleeing from Potiphar's wife. Originally part of the renowned Casa Bartholdy fresco cycle in Rome, the painting showcases the Nazarene movement's preference for clear outlines, luminous colors, and a return to the spirit of the early Renaissance.
