EDITORS COMMENTS
Master MZ's engraving, Solomon Worshipping False Gods, dated 1501, offers a poignant depiction of the biblical character King Solomon's lapse into idolatry as described in the Old Testament. In this image, Solomon, dressed in royal attire, is shown kneeling before a collection of false idols. Surrounded by various deities, both male and female figures, Solomon appears deep in prayer, seemingly oblivious to the fact that he is worshipping false gods instead of the one true God. The scene takes place indoors, in an ornate interior, with intricate details and shadows adding depth and texture to the engraving. This historic artwork, created during the 15th or 16th century, is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Germany and the enduring influence of biblical stories on European art. The National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. is home to this masterpiece, which continues to captivate and inspire visitors with its intricate details and thought-provoking concept.
