EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in biblical history as Saul casts his javelin at David. Taken from Hulberts Story of the Bible, published by The John Winston Company in 1932, this colour lithograph by Anton Robert Leinweber beautifully depicts the intensity and drama of this ancient tale. Intricately detailed costumes and regal palace surroundings transport us back to a time when kings ruled with power and authority. The image showcases the contrasting characters of Saul and David, highlighting their roles as king and servant respectively. While Saul's face is filled with anger and determination, David remains calm, clutching his lyre - symbolizing his musical talents that soothed Saul's troubled soul. The presence of servants adds depth to the scene, emphasizing the significance of this event within the kingdom. As we gaze upon this artwork, we can almost hear the tension in the air as Saul hurls his javelin towards David; an act driven by jealousy and fear. Leinweber's skillful use of color brings life to every detail: from the vibrant robes worn by both figures to the golden accents adorning their surroundings. This print serves as a reminder not only of religious teachings but also as a testament to timeless human emotions such as envy, betrayal, and resilience. A true masterpiece from Bridgeman Images' collection that transports us into one of humanity's most enduring stories - where faith meets conflict on an epic scale.
