David Playing the Harp Before Saul (I Kings 15)
Etching and engraving, 1595, 218 x 290 mm., Hollstein 18-36, from Encomium Musices.
Fine impression, the number scraped, trimmed on the platemark but showing a narrow blank border outside the borderline. Saul’s mad ravings are shown not only by his posture, but by a cloud of demons issuing from his mouth.
