EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable scene from biblical history. Titled "KING HANUN" it depicts an incident described in 2 Kings 10:3a-4, where Hanun, the King of the Ammonites, publicly humiliates David's ambassadors. Created as an illuminated manuscript in France around 1250, this Gothic-style illustration is part of The Morgan Picture Bible. The image transports us to the medieval era, capturing the essence of that time with its intricate details and rich colors. In the center sits King Hanun on his majestic throne, radiating authority and power. Surrounding him are men adorned in traditional attire and long beards, symbolizing their wisdom and experience. The composition skillfully portrays the tension between two ancient civilizations - Israelites represented by David's ambassadors and Ammonites under King Hanun's rule. The ambassador's shame is palpable as they endure public humiliation at the hands of their host. This artwork not only serves as a visual representation of a significant event from Old Testament scripture but also offers insights into religious beliefs during that period. It highlights themes such as honor, pride, diplomacy, and consequences for disrespecting emissaries. As we gaze upon this historical masterpiece captured by Granger Art on Demand from The Granger Collection archives in New York City (NYC), we are reminded of how art can transport us through time to witness pivotal moments in human history.
