EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from the 17th century depicts a pivotal moment in biblical history - David's daring escape after Saul's attempt to kill him. The European School artist skillfully captures the intensity of this dramatic scene, showcasing David's determination and agility as he flees for his life. The image is part of an unidentified series of Bible prints, believed to have been published by Pierre Mariette in Paris. It belongs to a private collection and has been preserved over the centuries, allowing us to appreciate its intricate details and emotional depth. In this particular print, we witness David's desperate flight through a windowpane, perched on a windowsill. His face reflects anger and bitterness towards his pursuer while conveying his resolve to survive against all odds. The engraver has also included Hebrew inscriptions alongside the image, adding an authentic touch that connects us with the ancient roots of this story. As we delve into this artwork, it serves as a reminder of the power of faith and resilience in times of adversity. It invites contemplation on themes such as religious devotion, human emotions, and the consequences of unchecked rage. Overall, this engraving not only showcases artistic mastery but also offers viewers an opportunity to reflect on timeless aspects of human existence found within religious narratives like those found in Christianity or Judaism.
