The image is an intricate and detailed engraving depicting a scene from the biblical story of King David, as described in 2 Samuel 16. In the foreground, there is a dramatic interaction between several figures.

In the center, a bearded man dressed in royal attire, presumably King David, is gesturing or being led away by a muscular soldier in armor, who is holding a spear. Surrounding David, other soldiers dressed in classical Roman-style armor and helmets, wielding swords and spears, appear to be preparing for an altercation.

On the right side of the image, a formidable figure with a raised arm, potentially Shimei (the man who cursed David and threw stones at him according to the biblical account), is depicted in a dynamic pose that suggests he is in the midst of a confrontation. Behind him, other figures are seen in the background, amidst columns or an architectural structure that resembles a palace or a significant building.

The background shows an assembly of armed men, possibly David's supporters or soldiers, creating a sense of depth and context related to an impending conflict. The Latin inscription at the bottom of the image refers to the biblical text from 2 Samuel 16, which describes Shimei cursing and throwing stones at David.

Overall, the engraving captures a moment of intense emotion and action, reflecting a significant event in King David's life.

This image depicts an engraving or etching with a historical or biblical scene. In the foreground, there is a central figure who appears to be hurling a stone or some object with great force, and his posture and expression suggest a strong action or confrontation. He is wearing a flowing garment, and a sword is visible at his side. Directly opposing him, there is another man recoiling from the action, with his hand raised as if to protect himself or in a gesture of speech. This man also wears a similar period garment with a draped cloak.

Behind these central characters are groups of other figures. To the left, men equipped with helmets and spears, possibly soldiers, look on or are moving forward. To the right, a structure resembling a classical or ancient building, with an arch and people looking out from a balcony, forms part of the background.

Beneath the image, there is a caption that reads: "Dum menire...2 Sam. 16 cap." which indicates that the scene is likely from the Biblical Books of Samuel, specifically chapter 16, hinting this could be an episode from the life of David or related to the events described in that chapter.

The style of the engraving, with its attention to detail and dynamic composition, is typical of artwork meant for illustration or teaching purposes, possibly produced during the Renaissance or Baroque periods, when such biblical scenes were commonly depicted in art.

This is a historical engraving depicting a biblical scene from 2 Samuel, Chapter 16. The artwork shows a dramatic moment with several figures in classical Roman-style dress and armor. There are soldiers with spears and military equipment in the background, and in the foreground, there appears to be a confrontation between several figures. The scene takes place outside what looks like a classical building or fortress with a curved balcony or architectural feature visible on the right side. The composition includes trees in the background on the left side. The style is typical of Renaissance or Baroque period engravings, with fine line work and detailed shading. At the bottom of the image, there is a Latin inscription referencing the biblical passage being illustrated. The overall scene conveys tension and movement through the dynamic poses of the figures.

The image depicts a biblical scene with several male figures in classical attire. On the left side, some men are carrying spears and shields, appearing to be soldiers or guards. In the center and right, other men in robes and cloaks seem to be conversing or debating, with expressive hand gestures. The architecture in the background shows Roman-style columns and arches.

The title at the bottom suggests this scene portrays King David being brought before someone, likely a figure of authority, while a crowd looks on. The overall style is reminiscent of classical religious artwork with detailed linework and shading. The Latin text provides additional context, though I cannot translate it fully.

The image depicts a scene from the Bible, specifically the story of David and Goliath. The illustration is in sepia tones and features a group of men in ancient attire, with some armed with swords and shields.
