EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "David before Saul, 1 Samuel xvi, 23" transports us back to biblical times with its intricate details and masterful execution. Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this print showcases a pivotal moment from the Old Testament. The scene depicts David standing before King Saul as he plays his harp skillfully. The delicate lines of the engraving bring to life the tension and anticipation in the room. David's youthful face is filled with determination and confidence, while Saul's expression reveals a mix of curiosity and skepticism. This artwork was originally featured in The Picture Scrap Book or Happy Hours at Home published by Religious Tract Society in 1864 or earlier. It serves as an illustration for one of the most iconic stories from the Bible - when David's musical talents first caught Saul's attention and eventually led him to become one of Israel's greatest kings. Rendered entirely in black and white, this engraving captures both light and shadow beautifully. Its timeless quality transcends centuries, making it a valuable addition to any art collection. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece through their Fine Art Finder platform. As we gaze upon this print today, we are reminded of the power of music, faith, and destiny that intertwine throughout history.
