Fotoreproductie van een gravure van Het Salomonsoordeel door Boëtius Adamsz. Bolswert, naar het schilderij door Peter Paul Rubens before 1858

This photo reproduction of a print, created by Jean Louis Bargignac in the mid-19th century, depicts a scene from the biblical story of Solomon's Judgment. The original painting was by Peter Paul Rubens and was engraved by Boëtius Adamsz. Bolswert. The print shows Solomon, the King of Israel, as he listens to the arguments of two women who claim to be the mother of the same child. The print was created in the 1800s, a time when photo reproductions were becoming increasingly popular, allowing art to be more widely accessible. This work exemplifies the growing interest in reproducing and distributing art in the 19th century.
