EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite engraving titled "Jezebel" by the English School from the 19th century. The artwork, part of a private collection, is a powerful illustration for Old Testament Portraits by Cunningham Geikie. It depicts Jezebel, a biblical princess and wife of King Ahab, known for her false beliefs and actions. The intricate details in this portrait bring to life the infamous character who met her tragic end as prophesied by the Hebrew Bible. With precision and skill, artist A Rowan beautifully captures Jezebel's regal demeanor while hinting at her deceitful nature. Through this image, viewers are transported back in time to witness one of history's most notorious figures. The engraving serves as a visual reminder of the consequences that can arise from straying away from righteousness. Digitally cleaned to enhance its clarity and impact, this print allows us to appreciate both the artistic talent behind it and its historical significance. As we delve into the books of Psalms and New Testament scriptures that mention Jezebel's name with disdain, we gain insight into how she shaped biblical narratives. Bridgeman Images presents this remarkable piece through Fine Art Finder without any commercial use intended. It invites us to reflect on themes such as power dynamics, faithfulness versus deception, and ultimately reminds us that even those who seem invincible can meet their downfall.
