EDITORS COMMENTS
In this wood engraving from Gustave Doré's illustrated Bible, we witness the grandeur of King Solomon welcoming the Queen of Sheba. The scene is taken from I Kings 10:2, a biblical passage that recounts the legendary encounter between these two prominent figures. The image transports us back to ancient times, where opulent architecture and intricate details dominate the frame. King Solomon stands tall and regal, his majestic presence exuding power and wisdom. With arms outstretched in a gesture of warm reception, he greets the Queen with genuine admiration. The Queen of Sheba herself appears equally impressive—a symbol of strength and grace. Her attire reflects her royal status as she approaches Solomon's court with an air of confidence and curiosity. This meeting serves as a testament to their mutual respect for one another's kingdoms. Doré's masterful engraving technique brings life to every line and texture within this historical tableau. Each stroke captures both the splendor of their surroundings and the depth of emotion on their faces. This artwork not only showcases Doré's artistic prowess but also highlights themes found within literature, religion, and Judeo-Christian history. It invites viewers to delve into biblical narratives while appreciating artistry that transcends time. As we gaze upon this remarkable print from 1865-66, we are reminded once again why Doré remains one of history's most celebrated illustrators—his ability to breathe life into stories through his engravings continues to captivate audiences
