Biblical Histories of the Old Testament

The degenerate son Ham uncovers the nakedness of his drunken father Noah. Genesis 9.

A woodcut illustration depicting the biblical scene of the Drunkenness of Noah. In the foreground, Noah lies asleep and partially uncovered on the ground near a tent and a tree. To the left, his son Ham looks on while pointing, while the other two brothers, Shem and Japheth, approach from behind, walking backward to cover their father with a garment to avoid seeing his nakedness.

Ham shames his drunken father Noah, whom the other brothers covered. Genesis 9.

The Latin title uses "pudenda" to refer to the private parts or "shameful things," while the German text emphasizes the act of shaming the father.
