EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the moment of Solomon's anointment as King, a significant event depicted in 1 Kings. Created by Julius Schnorr von Carolsfeld, a renowned artist of the nineteenth century, this drawing beautifully portrays the biblical scene with intricate details and profound symbolism. In this illustration, we witness David passing on his authority to his son Solomon. Zadok the priest can be seen holding a horn of oil from the tabernacle, symbolizing divine consecration and blessing. As they blow the trumpet, signifying a proclamation to all present, the people joyously declare their allegiance to their new king by exclaiming "God save king Solomon". Schnorr von Carolsfeld's meticulous attention to detail brings this ancient story to life. The characters' expressions convey both reverence and anticipation for what lies ahead under Solomon's reign. Through his masterful use of light and shadow, he creates a sense of depth that draws us into this sacred moment. This artwork is part of Bibel in Bildern (Bible in Pictures), an ambitious project undertaken by Schnorr von Carolsfeld between 1852-60. It stands as a testament not only to his artistic talent but also to his deep understanding and appreciation for religious themes. As we gaze upon this remarkable image, we are reminded of the enduring power and significance of biblical narratives throughout history. It serves as an invitation for reflection on faith, leadership, and divine guidance – timeless themes that continue to resonate with audiences across
