EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolithograph captures the powerful moment of Samuel anointing David, a pivotal event in biblical history. Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this print showcases exceptional quality and attention to detail. The image depicts Samuel, a revered priest and prophet, pouring oil onto the head of young David. This act symbolizes his divine selection as the future king of Israel. The intensity on their faces reflects the weightiness of this sacred ceremony. Displayed against a backdrop reminiscent of ancient Jerusalem, this artwork transports us back to a time when kings were anointed with great reverence and spiritual significance. It serves as a visual reminder of God's chosen path for David and his subsequent rise to become one of Israel's greatest leaders. Originally featured in "The Bible Picture Book (Old Testament)" published by Thomas Nelson around 1885, these large chromolithographs were praised for their exceptional quality. Today, this particular print is part of a private collection but continues to captivate viewers with its vibrant colors and meticulous craftsmanship. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are reminded not only of the historical importance it represents but also how faith can shape destinies. It stands as a testament to religious devotion across different traditions and reminds us that even ordinary individuals can be called upon for extraordinary purposes.
