This print titled "KING DAVID. King David playing the lyre" showcases an Ethiopian manuscript painting from the late 17th century. The image depicts a significant biblical figure, King David, seated and passionately strumming his lyre. The artist beautifully captures the essence of this ancient king, known for his musical talents and poetic prowess. The painting exudes a sense of royal grandeur as it portrays King David in regal attire, surrounded by men who seem to be captivated by his music. This artwork is not only a testament to fine art but also serves as a visual representation of the rich cultural heritage found in Ethiopia. As we delve into history through this portrait, we are reminded of its connection to Christianity and the Old Testament. King David holds immense significance within these religious contexts as he was revered as both a great ruler and an inspired musician.

It invites us to appreciate the artistic expression that flourished even centuries ago and provides us with a glimpse into the lives of those who lived during that era. Granger Art on Demand has once again curated an exceptional piece that allows viewers to immerse themselves in history while appreciating the skillful craftsmanship behind this Ethiopian manuscript painting depicting one of Israel's most celebrated kings - King David.
