Description
David kneels over a dead lion with a living lamb held close to his chest. His raised hand leads the eye upward, while the white fleece and pale tunic catch the light against a rocky landscape. The lion’s open mouth remains visible at his knee.
This hand-painted oil-on-canvas reproduction recreates The Shepherd David by Elizabeth Jane Gardner Bouguereau. Gardner shows the young shepherd before his encounter with Goliath, recalling the biblical account of his defence of the flock. The painting brings protective care and physical strength into the same pose.
