EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving, titled "David and Goliath" depicts a powerful biblical scene that has captured the imagination of countless generations. Created by an anonymous English School artist in the 19th century, this print showcases a dramatic moment from the story of David and Goliath. In this remarkable artwork, we witness young David, a shepherd boy turned warrior, facing off against the mighty Philistine giant named Goliath. Armed with only his sling and unwavering faith in God's guidance, David prepares to take on his colossal adversary. The image beautifully captures the tension and bravery displayed by both characters. The vibrant colors bring life to their expressions as they stand on opposite sides of history. This engraving is part of James Hagger's publication called "Sunny Sabbaths" or "Pleasant Pages for Happy Homes" published in London around 1868. Through its intricate details and masterful composition, this artwork invites us to reflect on themes such as courage, faith, and triumph over adversity found within religious texts like the Hebrew Bible or Old Testament. It serves as a reminder that even seemingly insurmountable challenges can be overcome through determination and divine intervention. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing print from Fine Art Finder's collection by Bridgeman Images, we are reminded of the enduring power of ancient stories that continue to inspire people across different religions and cultures throughout history.
