SOLOMON ASKING FOR WISDOM
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This wood engraving from the 19th century, after Gustave Doré, depicts a profound moment in biblical history. Solomon, the wise king of Israel, is shown seated on his royal throne adorned with a crown and robe. With an air of humility and reverence, he raises his hands towards the heavens as he beseeches God for the gift of wisdom. The intricate details of this engraving bring to life the grandeur of Solomon's court. Majestic columns frame him while stylized architecture surrounds him, creating a sense of regality and power. The artist's skillful use of lines and shading adds depth to every element - from Solomon's flowing beard to the old castle in the background. Solomon's pursuit for wisdom is rooted in his desire to rule justly over his people. As mentioned in 2 Chronicles 1:10, he recognized that true leadership required divine guidance. This image captures that pivotal moment when Solomon humbly acknowledges his dependence on God's wisdom. Through this print, we are transported back in time to witness a significant event from the Old Testament. It serves as a reminder that seeking wisdom should be at the core of our own journeys - whether we hold positions of power or not. This remarkable piece by The Granger Collection offers us an opportunity to reflect on our own quest for knowledge and understanding while appreciating both its artistic beauty and historical significance.
