Publisher's Synopsis
How did the masters of art imagine the rape of David's daughter, Tamar, by her half-brother Amnon?
This collection depicts the assassination of Amnon at the hands of her brother, followed by Absalom's revolt, trying to topple David from his throne.
These amazing sculptures, paintings, etchings, and manuscripts inspired the author to write The David Chronicles, an epic historical fiction trilogy with a modern twist. Besides being an artist and an architect, she taught art history and curated this collection to analyze the contrasts between various artistic viewpoints.
This collection is arranged not by artist, nor by artistic style or era, but rather moment-by-moment following the biblical story, as imagined by Rembrandt, Michelangelo, Chagall, Frederic Lord Leighton and Jan Steen, to name but a few.
