Antwerp Flemish Gray Heightened Mechelen Point Slight Traces White Black Chalk
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the Liszt Collection, we are transported back in time to witness a significant moment in biblical history. The artwork titled "Samuel Anointing Young David" depicts an intense scene of divine appointment and destiny. The artist, Jan Erasmus Quellinus, a Flemish painter hailing from Antwerp and Mechelen, skillfully captures the essence of this sacred event. Using a point brush technique with gray-black washes heightened by white accents, he brings depth and emotion to every stroke. At the center of the composition stands Samuel, anointing young David as chosen by God to be Israel's future king. The slight traces of black chalk add texture and detail to their figures, emphasizing their importance within the narrative. Measuring 11 1/16 x 22 1/2 inches (281 x 571 cm), this drawing is both grand in scale and rich in symbolism. It serves as a reminder that even the most unexpected individuals can be called upon for greatness when divinely appointed. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece by Artokoloro, let us reflect on our own potential for greatness and how our lives may be guided by unseen forces beyond our comprehension.
