This remarkable illustration beautifully captures a pivotal moment in her life as she departs from King Ahasuerus' presence. Esther's journey is one of courage and resilience, as she was chosen to replace Queen Vashti and became the Queen of Persia. Her bravery shines through as she foiled Haman's wicked plot to annihilate the Jews living within the Persian Kingdom.

The attention to detail is evident in every stroke, highlighting Esther's strength and determination.
