EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving titled "Choosing smooth stones out of the brook" we are transported to a serene scene by an English School artist from the 19th century. The artwork, now part of a private collection, beautifully captures a moment steeped in biblical significance. The image depicts figures carefully selecting smooth stones from a brook, their hands gently caressing each stone's surface. This timeless act holds great symbolism as it alludes to the renowned story of David and Goliath found in the Old Testament. These stones would soon become powerful weapons wielded by David against the formidable giant Goliath. Rendered with meticulous detail and enhanced through digital cleaning, this illustration originally accompanied Bible Pictures and Stories (Old Testament) by D. J. D Partridge around 1885. It serves as a visual reminder of faith, courage, and triumph over adversity that resonates across time. As we gaze upon this print from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, our imagination is sparked with thoughts of ancient battles fought and won. The image invites us to reflect on not only biblical tales but also on how stories can inspire us to face our own giants with determination and resilience.
