This print, "Saul richt zijn speer op David," is part of a series of engravings by Johann Sadeler I depicting scenes from the life of David, the second king of Israel. The print depicts a scene from the biblical narrative of David and Goliath, showing a dramatic and violent moment in which David attempts to kill Goliath with his spear. Created between 1575 and 1654, this engraving is a powerful example of the art of the 16th century and displays the dramatic and graphic style of Sadeler's work. It would have been popular with religious audiences interested in the Biblical story of David.
