EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the awe-inspiring moment when King David, a revered figure in biblical history, bears the Ark of the Covenant into Jerusalem. Painted by Domenico Gargiulo, also known as Micco Spadaro, in the 1640s using oil on canvas, this masterpiece is now housed in Moscow's Pushkin Museum. The composition exudes a sense of grandeur and spirituality as King David leads a procession towards the sacred city.

Its radiant glow illuminates their path while evoking a profound reverence among those witnessing this extraordinary event.
