David spiller på harpe for Saul 1838

This pencil sketch by Danish artist Dankvart Dreyer, created in 1838, depicts a scene from the biblical story of David playing his harp for King Saul. The drawing features three figures: Saul seated on a throne with a spear, David kneeling and playing a harp, and a figure standing in the doorway, likely a servant. The composition showcases Dreyer's attention to detail in capturing the figures' postures and facial expressions, revealing a sense of tension and drama. The artwork, currently housed in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, provides insight into Dreyer's artistic style and his interpretation of biblical themes.
