EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the powerful moment of Samuel anointing David, as depicted by Richard Andre in a stunning colour lithograph. The image showcases the biblical scene from the book of Samuel, where the young shepherd boy David is chosen to become king. The artist's attention to detail and use of vibrant colors bring this ancient story to life. The composition beautifully portrays Samuel pouring oil onto David's head, symbolizing his divine selection as future ruler. The expressions on both figures' faces reveal their deep connection and spiritual significance of this transformative act. This particular print is part of a private collection and was originally published in a Bible book by SPCK around 1890. Its inclusion in Look and Learn magazine allows us to appreciate its historical value while also admiring its artistic merit. Andre's portrayal not only highlights the importance of faith but also emphasizes themes such as destiny, leadership, and humility. It serves as a reminder that even those who may seem insignificant can be chosen for greatness. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are transported back in time to witness this pivotal moment in biblical history – an annointing that would shape the course of nations for generations to come.
