EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the representation of the Witch of Endor, also known as the Pythonisse of Endor, a Canaanite village mentioned in the first book of Samuel in the Bible. The image depicts a powerful scene where she holds a talisman that enables her to summon the ghost of the prophet Samuel, who had recently passed away. This extraordinary event occurred at the request of Saul, king of Israel. The engraving from Lahure's Holy History, created in the 19th century by an anonymous French artist, beautifully captures this mystical encounter. It portrays both the intensity and intrigue surrounding this ancient tale. The Witch of Endor is often referred to as a medium or sometimes even called "the Medium of Endor". According to biblical accounts found in First Book of Samuel, King Saul sought out her assistance to communicate with Samuel's spirit. This engraving brings this momentous occasion to life and invites viewers into this supernatural realm. Preserved within a private collection and made available through Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder database, this photograph offers us an opportunity to delve into religious history and explore themes such as divination and spiritual communication. Its intricate details and historical significance make it an invaluable piece for art enthusiasts and those interested in biblical narratives alike.
