專家說明
For another fine impression before the plate number but without platetone, see Reuße, no. 19.19*.
According to Reuße, this impression is not a proof but an impression from the earliest edition, printed before the plate numbers were added. True proof impressions from the series tend to be printed with an unevenly wiped plate tone and some show small differences in the composition compared to the prints from the edition. (For an example of a tonal proof from the Flight into Egypt, see Reuße 19.6; for a comparison between a proof and an early editioned print, see 19.11 and 19.11*.)
The present impression is clearly an early proof, irregularly wiped and somewhat hapharzardly inked along the right sheet edge. Compositional differences to later impressions do not seem to exist, although there are some pentimenti visible in the present impressions, along the outline of Joseph's left shoulder and back, behind his left elbow and lower back, with disappear soon after and are only partially or very faintly visible in Reuße, no. 19.19*.
