Joseph tells the dream to his brothers, 1580
Engraving
24,6 x 36,8 cm
Rare first state out of two, before Francesco Villamena's
retouches.

Rare proof on paper with the watermark 'Shield with letter M and star', Briquet n. 8392, Ferrara 1580. Perfect condition of the sheet, with thin margins beyond the platemark.
