Story of Joseph: twelve scenes on a Dutch printed sheet

A hand-colored printed sheet of twelve small framed scenes, each with Dutch captions, showing robed figures, a sun-and-stars dream, a well, a palace interior and a horse-drawn carriage. Faded ink and warm color give it the look of an old broadside printed for popular reading.
