"De triomf van David" (Triumph of David) is a 16th-century engraving by Lucas van Leyden, depicting the biblical story of David's victory over Goliath. The artwork features David, holding Goliath's severed head, with two women representing Faith and Justice. The composition and detailed rendering, characteristic of Leyden's style, emphasize the theme of divine providence and human virtue. This powerful imagery, executed with masterful use of light and shadow, made it popular during the Renaissance. You can find this engraving at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
