EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in biblical history - the scene of Rehoboam, the fourth king of Israel, accepting advice from the young men he had grown up with. In this engraving from 1890, we witness Rehoboam's decision to reject counsel from his elders and seek guidance from his peers instead. The image portrays an indoor setting where Rehoboam stands at the center, adorned in regal attire including a crown and cloak. Surrounding him are a group of young men, all dressed in traditional ancient clothing. The artist skillfully depicts their animated conversation as they gesture and discuss matters of importance. Rehoboam's choice to consult his contemporaries rather than rely on the wisdom of experienced advisors is depicted here as he listens intently to their words. This moment symbolizes youthful arrogance and impulsive decision-making that would have far-reaching consequences for both himself and his kingdom. The historical significance of this event is underscored by its inclusion in "Cassells Illustrated Universal History" a renowned publication by Edmund Ollier. Through this illustration, viewers are transported back to ancient times when kings ruled with absolute authority and sought counsel even from those who lacked experience or wisdom. This print serves as a reminder that seeking advice should not be limited to age or status but should consider diverse perspectives for informed decision-making. It also highlights the timeless nature of human folly that can lead even great leaders astray if they fail to heed wise counsel.
