EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Slaying of Goliath" painting, which was originally created by Scheggia, Giovanni di Ser Giovanni in the 15th century. The artwork depicts a significant biblical moment from the Old Testament where David, a young shepherd boy chosen by God, defeats the mighty Philistine warrior Goliath. Measuring at 41.6x132.3 cm, this tempera oil and gold on panel masterpiece is housed in a private collection. The photograph beautifully captures every intricate detail of the painting's composition - from the dramatic battle scene to the stunning landscape that serves as its backdrop. In this awe-inspiring image, we witness David fearlessly confronting his colossal opponent with unwavering faith and determination. Mounted on majestic horses, both figures are portrayed with remarkable precision and skillful brushwork. "The Slaying of Goliath" not only exemplifies heroism but also reflects themes of religious devotion and triumph over adversity found within Christianity and Judaism alike. This iconic portrayal has become an enduring symbol of courage throughout history. Through this print brought to you by Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, viewers can appreciate not only the artistic mastery behind Scheggia's work but also delve into profound narratives inspired by ancient scriptures. It serves as a reminder that even against seemingly insurmountable odds, one can find strength and victory through faith.
