EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "David Anointed King" transports us back to biblical times and immerses us in the story of David's anointment as king. Created by Julius Schnorr von Carolsfeld, a renowned artist of the 19th century, this print showcases his exceptional talent for capturing the essence of religious narratives. The image depicts a pivotal moment in David's life when he is anointed as king by Samuel, one of Israel's most revered prophets. The scene is filled with symbolism and emotion; we can almost feel the weight of destiny resting upon David's shoulders. His youthful face radiates both humility and determination, hinting at the challenges that lie ahead. Schnorr von Carolsfeld masterfully uses light and shadow to create depth and drama within the composition. The delicate engravings bring every intricate detail to life – from the folds in David's robe to each strand of hair on his head. This attention to detail adds a sense of realism that draws viewers deeper into the narrative. Originally published as part of "The Bible in Pictures or Scripture History illustrated in a series of one hundred and eighty engravings" this artwork has become an iconic representation of David's journey from shepherd boy to legendary king. It serves as a reminder that even ordinary individuals can be chosen for extraordinary destinies. As we gaze upon this powerful engraving, we are reminded not only of its artistic brilliance but also its ability to transport us through time into ancient tales that continue to inspire
