O obrazu
An oversized turban and jewels adorn Aert de Gelder's King David, painted in 1680–1685 and now at the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam. Like his teacher Rembrandt, De Gelder enjoyed inventing elaborate costumes for biblical and mythological figures. The king's dress offers that freedom, but the writing in his book is genuine Hebrew, rather than invented lettering.
Slovy muzea
Just like his teacher Rembrandt, Aert de Gelder had a penchant for imaginative attire. Figures from the Bible or classical mythology offered a perfect opportunity for such fancy. Here the biblical king David is bedecked with jewels, and wears an enormous turban on his head. The text in the book is not imaginary, but actual Hebrew.
