Plays Psaltery Relaxes Strumming Testament
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the legendary King David of Israel, depicted in a moment of tranquility as he plays his psaltery. Dating back to the 16th century, this historical print offers a glimpse into the rich cultural and religious traditions of the ancient world. King David, a revered figure in both the Hebrew Bible and the Christian Old Testament, is best known for his role as a shepherd, warrior, and poet king. According to the biblical account, David was a man of deep faith and devotion, and his compositions on the harp and psaltery were inspired by his personal experiences and his relationship with God. The psaltery, a type of ancient stringed instrument, was a favorite of David's, and he is said to have composed many of the psalms that bear his name while playing this instrument. In this image, David is shown in a relaxed posture, his fingers gracefully plucking at the strings, lost in thought and communion with the divine. This print, with its intricate details and beautiful use of color, offers a window into the past, transporting us back to a time when the arts and the divine were inextricably linked. The image of King David playing his psaltery serves as a poignant reminder of the enduring power of music and art to inspire and uplift the human spirit, and of the profound impact that faith and spirituality have had on the course of human history.
