EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the emotional moment of "The parting of David and Jonathan". The engraving, created by Louis John Rhead, beautifully depicts the poignant scene from biblical history. As described in the Psalms of David, David and Jonathan bid each other farewell with a heartfelt embrace, shedding tears together. In this illustration for Fleming H Revell's publication of The Psalms of David in 1900, we witness the deep bond between these two extraordinary individuals. David, known as both a poet and warrior-king, was also a humble shepherd before ascending to power. Jonathan, on the other hand, was not only a loyal friend but also an esteemed prince. Their parting is filled with raw emotion as they come together one last time to share their love and sorrow. The image portrays their genuine affection through their tender kiss and shared tears. Through this artwork by Rhead, we are reminded of the profound connections that can be formed between individuals despite societal roles or circumstances. It serves as a powerful testament to friendship and loyalty that transcends boundaries. This print from Bridgeman Images allows us to reflect upon timeless themes found within religious texts such as love, loss, and human connection.
