This is a painting of three figures along with a poetic text. The image features three figures rendered in shades of green with minimalist features. One figure is central, wearing a robe adorned with orange and white rectangular shapes. Another is slightly behind, gesturing with their hand resting on the central figure's shoulder. A third figure is crouched beside the central figure, resting a hand upon the same robe. To the right of the figures, green text on a lighter background reads, "JOSEPH ONCE DRAGGED FROM POTIPHAR’S PLENTIFUL HOUSE TO THE DARK PRISON’S YARD WHERE HE ROSE TO THE OFFICE OF OVERSEER".
