Isaac bendice a Jacob

1880[-]81

¡Vaya drama familiar! Esta escena captura el momento en que Jacob engaña a su padre ciego, Isaac, para que le otorgue la bendición familiar destinada a su hermano Esaú. Jacob se mantiene erguido con una capa bordeada de piel para imitar a su hermano velludo, mientras su madre Rebeca acecha en el fondo con aspecto totalmente estresado, sosteniendo el plato de comida que selló el acuerdo. El artista victoriano Edward Armitage ilustró este momento bíblico alrededor de 1880, y las intrincadas líneas probablemente fueron grabadas por los famosos hermanos Dalziel, cuya firma aparece en la esquina inferior.
