EDITORS COMMENTS
This stained glass print, titled "David & King Saul" transports us back to the late 19th century. Created by John William Brown in 1891, this exquisite piece can be found at St Andrews Church in Ashburton, UK. The artist's affiliation with the Arts and Crafts movement is evident through his attention to detail and use of symbolic imagery. The scene depicted showcases two central characters: David and King Saul from the Old Testament. David, a renowned musician, soothes King Saul's troubled soul with his harp while holding a weapon symbolizing his future as a warrior. The melancholy atmosphere is enhanced by the regal throne on which King Saul sits. The Pre-Raphaelite influence is apparent in the Victorian aestheticism portrayed throughout this artwork. Every element has been meticulously crafted to convey emotion and meaning - from the intricate stained glass window design to the carefully chosen symbols that represent both war and music. As we gaze upon this stunning print, we are reminded of how art has the power to transcend time and evoke powerful emotions within us. It serves as a reminder of our rich cultural heritage and invites us into a world where symbolism reigns supreme. Let yourself be captivated by this mesmerizing piece that seamlessly combines history, religion, beauty, and craftsmanship into one harmonious composition.
