Casket: Scenes from the Story of Joseph
1500
23.0 x 27.0 cm
The Frick Collection
This casket is decorated with seven plaques, each of which depicts an episode of the Story of Joseph from the Book of Genesis. Following the biblical text chronologically, the scenes are painted after woodcuts by Bernard Salomon, first published in 1553 in Quadrins historiques de la Bible by Jean de Tournes and in various bibles issued afterward by the same publisher. Because of the clarity of Salomon’s illustrations, the story of Joseph became a recurrent source of inspiration for Limoges enamelers in the second half of the sixteenth century, among them, Pierre Reymond, Jean de Court, Suzanne de Court, and Pierre Courteys, who signed this casket.Source: Vignon, Charlotte.
