Solomon Worshiping an Idol, ca. 1514 - A Captivating Biblical Scene in Black and White
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures the essence of Lucas van Leyden's masterpiece, "Solomon Worshiping an Idol" created around 1514. As a renowned Dutch artist of the Renaissance period, van Leyden skillfully depicts a powerful biblical scene that resonates with viewers even today. In this woodcut artwork, we witness King Solomon kneeling before a statue, engaging in idolatry—a grave sin according to his Hebrew heritage and religious beliefs.

Van Leyden's artistry shines through as he masterfully portrays the emotions on Solomon's face—his conflicted expression reflects both regret for succumbing to idol worship and his inherent human vulnerability.
