Pictures of the Year - V. 'Saul and David' after Ernest Normand, 1891
EDITORS COMMENTS
is an enchanting print depicting a biblical scene from the Old Testament. The image, which is believed to be after the original work by Ernest Normand from 1891, was published in "The Graphic: An Illustrated Weekly Newspaper" between July and December of that year. The print captures the dramatic moment when the young shepherd boy David, armed with a sling and stone, confronts the monarch Saul, who is seated on his throne with a crown upon his head and a worried expression on his face. Kneeling before Saul, David confidently declares his intention to defeat the Philistine giant Goliath, who had taunted the Israelites and challenged them to send out a champion to fight him. The posture and facial expressions of both Saul and David convey the tension and uncertainty of the moment. Saul, the sovereign of Israel, seems hesitant and doubtful, while David, with his unwavering faith and determination, exudes confidence and courage. The print beautifully captures the contrast between the two figures, highlighting the themes of faith, courage, and the clash between the old and the new. The print is a testament to the artistic skill and creativity of the unknown artist, who brought this biblical scene to life through their engraving. The image is a valuable addition to any collection of 19th-century art, religious art, or prints, and is a reminder of the rich artistic and cultural heritage of Britain during the Victorian era.
