EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite late 16th-early 17th century print, created by the Workshop of Jan Brueghel the Elder, depicts the biblical story of Bathsheba receiving a letter from King David. The scene unfolds in a lush, exotic garden filled with vibrant flowers, including freesias, irises, and other iridaceae, as well as various animals and birds. In the foreground, Bathsheba, depicted in her nakedness, is shown bathing in a fountain surrounded by playful dogs and ducks. In the background, a monkey looks on from the branches of a tree, while a messenger boy delivers the letter to her, carried by a white dove. The grand architecture of buildings and structures can be seen in the distance, adding to the sense of grandeur and opulence. This work, which showcases Jan Brueghel the Elder's mastery of color and detail, is a testament to the rich heritage of Flemish art and the enduring power of the biblical narrative.
