EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "JOAB, ABNER, DAVID" takes us back to ancient times and the dramatic events that unfolded in biblical history. The image captures a pivotal moment from II Samuel iii: 26-27 when Joab recalls Abner and ultimately slays him. The intensity of this scene is palpable as we witness the clash between these two powerful figures. The French manuscript illumination from c1250 adds an exquisite touch to this historical depiction. The intricate details of the handwriting and medieval artistry transport us to a bygone era, evoking a sense of mysticism and wonder. It serves as a testament to the rich cultural heritage associated with Christianity during that time. As we delve deeper into the narrative, we learn that David receives news of Abner's death shortly after Joab commits his heinous act. This revelation prompts David's emotional response captured in II Samuel iii: 28-29 where he curses Joab for his actions. The photograph not only showcases this significant event but also provides insight into ancient Israelite society, highlighting their customs and beliefs. It offers viewers an opportunity to reflect on themes such as power dynamics, loyalty, betrayal, and consequences. Granger Art on Demand has once again curated an exceptional piece that allows us to explore history through visual storytelling. This print invites contemplation about our own moral choices while immersing ourselves in the timeless tales of old Palestine.
