EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases George Heywood Maunoir Sumner's masterpiece, "David" created in 1898. The artist beautifully illustrates the biblical tale of David and Goliath, capturing a pivotal moment in history. Set against a scenic backdrop of nature, with an idyllic river flowing peacefully nearby, the image exudes tranquility. In this artwork, we see David standing tall and courageous on the riverbank. His gaze is fixed upon his opponent as he prepares to face the mighty giant Goliath. With a slingshot in hand and armed with unwavering faith, David embodies strength and determination. Sumner's attention to detail is remarkable; every element within the composition serves a purpose. The lush greenery surrounding David symbolizes growth and life amidst adversity. Meanwhile, the towering tree behind him represents stability and resilience. The use of color adds depth to this extraordinary piece. Warm earth tones evoke a sense of harmony between man and nature while also hinting at the impending battle that lies ahead. "David" not only captures an iconic religious story but also reflects Sumner's mastery as an artist during the late 19th century. This print serves as a testament to his skillful portrayal of historical events through vivid imagery. As we admire this striking portrait by George Heywood Maunoir Sumner, we are transported back in time to witness one man's bravery against insurmountable odds – a timeless reminder that courage knows no boundaries or limitations.
