EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a vibrant colour lithograph titled "Old Testament Stories, David refusing the Water from Bethlehem". Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this artwork is part of a private collection. The image depicts a powerful scene from biblical history where King David refuses water from Bethlehem. Originally published as an illustration for Bubbles edited by Dr Barnardo in 1900, this artwork beautifully captures the essence of Old Testament stories. It transports viewers back to ancient times and immerses them in the rich narratives found within the Hebrew Bible. The composition skillfully highlights David's determination and strength of character as he turns down water offered to him during a time of great thirst. This momentous act symbolizes his unwavering loyalty to God and his reliance on divine providence. Rendered with vivid colours and intricate details through lithography, this print brings these old tales to life. The use of colour adds depth and intensity to the scene while emphasizing its significance within biblical literature. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are reminded not only of its artistic value but also of its historical and religious importance. It serves as a visual reminder that even centuries later, these timeless stories continue to inspire awe and captivate our imagination.
