Here, David is not young but not yet old. He looks at a tablet inscribed with a line from a Psalm: ‘Glorious things of thee are spoken, O City of God’ (GLORIOSA \/ DICTA SVNT \/ DE TE CIVITAS \/ DEI). The luminous colouring and complex psychology exemplify Guercino’s achievements as a mature painter.\n\nThe painting was commissioned in 1651 by Giuseppe Locatelli of Cesena, together with a painting of one of the ancient Sibyls. David and the Sibyls were considered prophets of the coming of Christ. The original pendant to King David, the Cumaean Sibyl with a Putto (National Gallery), was replaced by a second Samian Sibyl with a Putto (also National Gallery). King David and the Samian Sibyl have hung together for centuries, first in Cesena then in Spencer House, London.\" - (\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.nationalgallery.org.uk\/paintings\/guercino-king-david\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"National Gallery of Art London - King David\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eNational Gallery of Art, London\u003c\/a\u003e)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Guercino","offers":[{"title":"No Size Selected (Select a Size)","offer_id":50509634535667,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Replica Size (88\" x 67\")","offer_id":50509634568435,"sku":null,"price":8549.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Signature Size (20 1\/2\" x 15 5\/8\")","offer_id":50509634601203,"sku":null,"price":695.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Classic Size (25 1\/8\" x 19 1\/8\")","offer_id":50509634633971,"sku":null,"price":895.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gallery Size (30 3\/4\" x 23 1\/2\")","offer_id":50509634666739,"sku":null,"price":1295.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Statement Size (39 3\/4\" x 30 1\/4\")","offer_id":50509634699507,"sku":null,"price":1995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Grand Size (47 5\/8\" x 36 3\/8\")","offer_id":50509634732275,"sku":null,"price":2795.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Estate Size (56 1\/8\" x 42 3\/4\")","offer_id":50509634765043,"sku":null,"price":3695.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Museum Size (67 3\/8\" x 51 1\/2\")","offer_id":50509634797811,"sku":null,"price":4995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0827\/5738\/6483\/files\/KingDavid.jpg?v=1789818927","url":"https:\/\/commissionedpaintings.com\/products\/king-david-ngal730","provider":"Commissioned Paintings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
