Limoges enamellers decorated caskets, ewers, dishes, and small plates with Joseph scenes. Although no complete sets are known, this plate was probably one of a set of twelve each decorated with a different event in the story, beginning when Joseph was already the slave of Potifar in Egypt, and extending from his rejection of the enticements of Potiphar\u2019s wife (Genesis 39.7) to his reconciliation with his brothers (Genesis 45.14-16). Ten of the scenes were closely based on Bernard Salomon's woodcut illustrations to Claude Paradin\u2019s 'Quadrins historiques de la Bible', first published by Jean de Tournes in Lyon in 1553. An augmented edition appeared in 1555, reprinted in 1558 and 1560, and another augmented edition in 1583. Each page had the biblical reference at the top, a woodcut, and an explanatory verse below. Another work of the same type, Guillaume Gu\u00e9roult\u2019s 'Figures de la Bible illustr\u00e9es de huictains francoys . . . (Guillaume Roville), Lyons, 1564 (2nd edn, 1565), with illustrations by Pierre Vase\/Eskrich was used for the 7th and 10th plates in the series, and the 12th has aspects from the woodcuts in both publications. These books can be seen online in the website Gallica of the Biblioth\u00e8que nationale. The story of Joseph was also recounted at length by the Jewish historian, Flavius Josephus (c. 37 BC - after 100 AD), in his Antiquities of the Jews, Book II, II\u2013VII. This work was widely read in sixteenth-century France, and the Lyon edition of 1562, 'l\u2019Histoire de Fl. Josephe, Sacrificateur Hebrieu', translated by Fran\u00e7ois Bourgoing, and printed by Jean Temporal for Jean de Tournes, illustrates the part of Joseph\u2019s story which appears on the Limoges plates with Salomon\u2019s twelve woodcuts for those scenes, but without the biblical reference. It is therefore possible that the enameller could have used that rather than 'Quadrins historique de la Bible'. \n\nThis subject, the ninth in the sequence, was taken from the Book of Genesis 42  Joseph\u2019s brothers returned home to their father Jacob, having left Simeon behind in Egypt as a hostage. When they unpacked their sacks of grain, they discover that their money has been returned to them in their sacks.  The scene was after the woodcut titled GENESE XLII\u2019 by Bernard Salomon in Claude Paradin\u2019s, Quadrins Historique de la Bible, Lyon (Jean de Tournes), 1553 or a later edition. The plate was misidentified in the catalogue of the 1865 Mus\u00e9e retorspectif as Joseph selling corn to his brothers, and later as the Betrayal of Benjamin, and as the Finding of the Cup in Benjamin's Sack, which occur later in the story.Another plate decorated with this subject formerly belonged to Baron Ferdinand Anselm de Rothschild (1839-98), and is part of the Waddesdon Bequest in the British Museum (WB34) (see Documentation)\n\nThe plate has a blue ground, like those in a part set of six plates in the Louvre, which were acquired in 1794 having been seized for the state in 1793 from the collection of Louis-Hercule-Timol\u00e9on, duc de Brissac (1734-1792) then in the h\u00f4tel Talleyrand-P\u00e9ricord. The plates in that group however, are a little larger than this plate, 20.2 cm in diameter, and have different border designs on the rim, so although this subject is missing from that set (if it originally had twelve plates), the plate seems unlikely to have been part of it.\n\nThe overall appearance of these plates, the border on the fronts,  and the style of grisaille decoration on the reverses, is comparable to a set of plates decorated with scenes from the Life of the Virgin signed' I.C.' . These have the de Vic arms below on the rims, probably for M\u00e9ry de Vic (d. 1622), who had been resident in Limoges as intendant during 1588 and 1589, while on a mission to restore order in the region for Henry III, and after his assassination in August 1589, had transferred his allegiance to Henry IV. It seems likely that the plates were made about that time, and if not, before 1603 when a change was made to the de Vic arms.\n\nThe initials \u2018'I\u2022C.\u2019 occur on a great many Limoges enamels made during the second half of the 16th and early seventeenth century. The plate therefore seems likely to have been a workshop mark used successively by members of the Court family. These were Jehan\/Jean Court dit Vigier I (d. 1592), whose earliest known signed work was dated 1555, and his son, Jean Court dit Vigier II (b. c.1575; d. between 1631-5); a Jehan\/Jean de Court who witnessed the latter's wedding in 1598, and was therefore probably a relative (if he were an enameller which is not certain), and a related enameller, Jehan\/Jean Court dit Vigier le jeune who married in 1613, and  died between 1627-31.

2006)."}],"periods":[{"@link":{"type":"reference"},"admin":{"id":"term-126849","uid":"adlib-term-126849","uuid":"12adb53f-3133-3826-9950-cb457b8a568d"},"summary_title":"16th Century, Late-17th
