EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the stunning stained glass artwork titled "King David and Charity" by Edward Coley Burne-Jones. Created in 1896, these two windows were originally commissioned for St Cuthberts Church in Newcastle-upon-Tyne, UK. Unfortunately, the church was demolished in 1969, but this photograph preserves the beauty of Burne-Jones' masterpiece. The stained glass windows depict two poignant episodes from the Bible involving King David. In one scene, we see him fervently praying and weeping for his sick child's life. The other panel portrays King David accepting his child's tragic death with unwavering fortitude. These windows were dedicated to Arthur Gibson, who passed away at a young age along with his children Rex and Phoebe. Burne-Jones masterfully captures the emotions and symbolism within each pane of glass. The intricate mosaic style combined with elements of Arts and Crafts movement exemplify British artistry from the late 19th century. King David is depicted seated on an ornate throne holding a sceptre while wearing a crown, symbolizing his regal status. The figure of Charity is personified as a benevolent woman seated beside King David, representing her virtue as she offers solace during times of sorrow. This pre-Raphaelite masterpiece serves as a testament to Burne-Jones' talent and craftsmanship. Thanks to this print from Fine Art Finder by Bridgeman Images, viewers can appreciate the rich history behind these extraordinary stained glass windows that once adorned St Cuthberts Church in Newcastle-upon-Tyne.
