I'm spamming your asks, I'm sorry but can we talk about this painting of Saul and David?! (I'm not an art person or bible person but pgfttffg..)

How soft it looks, with blankets and Saul's leg and robe(?) hanging over the edge with how relaxed he is, them having eye contact and hands/fingers are so detailed+the final fact I found this painting with it being the trope picture for "Lover and Beloved" in tv tropes... it's just really pretty and warm.

It's the Babylonian twink! At least, that's what this painting is called here on Tumblr!

Yeah, some scholars push the idea of David and Saul being lovers, and the art depicting them is either like this… or showing Saul being completely done with David.

A detail I really like in this painting is how Saul has one leg dangling in the air and is softly holding a spear. It suggests that Saul is ready to pin David against the wall but is still enjoying the music he creates.

THE SHADE OF SAMUEL APPEARS TO SAUL /1668/ by SALVATOR ROSA

In this piece, Rosa depicts a scene from the Bible, specifically from 1 Samuel 28. Where King Saul is desperate for guidance before a battle against the Philistines, seeks out the Witch of Endor to summon the spirit of the deceased prophet Samuel.

The Witch is depicted shirtless and is lighting a branch on fire, in the process summons the spirit of Samuel, who is in a hooded white cloak. In this moment, Saul gets frightened. He is seen in armour crouching on the floor. Two of his men are cowering on the floor behind Samuel, while spectral monsters float in the gloom.

Samuel, the last Judge of the Israelites, anointed Saul as their first king. In a cantankerous mood at being recalled from the Shades, Samuel foretold the worst, that neither Saul nor his sons would survive the morrow. In the ensuing battle, his three sons were slain, and Saul, wounded, threw himself on his own sword, and Samuel’s prophecy came to pass.

At the time of its creation, Rosa was nearing the end of his career, having established himself as a significant artist of his time. His works often combined elements of drama and emotion, and this painting exemplifies his ability to convey psychological depth through visual storytelling.

...and it came to pass, when the evil spirit from God was upon saul, that david took an harp, and played with his hand: so saul was refreshed, and was well, and the evil spirit departed from him.
