EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the iconic biblical story of David and Goliath, depicted in vibrant colors through a 19th-century English School lithograph. The image captures the essence of this timeless tale, evoking both awe and inspiration. In this scene, we witness the young shepherd boy David standing tall before the towering figure of Goliath. With unwavering determination etched on his face, David holds a slingshot in one hand while clutching a stone in the other. This powerful visual encapsulates the moment just before David's fateful shot that would bring down the mighty giant. The attention to detail in this lithograph is remarkable; every brushstroke seems to breathe life into these legendary characters. The artist skillfully portrays Goliath as an imposing figure with bulging muscles and an intimidating presence, contrasting sharply with David's youthful innocence and unyielding faith. Originally created as an illustration for "The Little Ones Sunday Picture Book" by Ernest Nister around 1890, this artwork has since become an enduring symbol of courage and triumph over adversity. It serves as a reminder that even against seemingly insurmountable odds, determination and belief can lead to extraordinary victories. This print from Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate not only its artistic beauty but also its profound narrative significance. As we gaze upon it, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand one of history's most celebrated underdog stories – where faith prevailed over fear and strength arose from unexpected places
