The first Book of Kings in the Bible (3:16-28) tells the story of how King Solomon had to pass judgment in a case concerning two prostitutes who lived in the same house and had given birth at the same time. One of the children died shortly afterwards, and now both women claimed the living child as theirs.

King Solomon’s wisdom and sense of justice led him to have a sword brought in and to order the living child cloven in two so that the women could share it. This order provoked the desired response in the true mother who gave up her half in the hope of saving the child’s life.

The painting's warm and cold side The painting has a warm and a cold side. This polarisation concerns both the grouping of the colours and the story itself. The warm colours – the yellow garments of the true mother, Solomon’s red cloak and golden throne – against the cold hues – the executioner’s blue sash, the false mother’s icily white dress, and the twisted silvery columns behind her.

The painting made by Rubens' workshop Rubens is a master of arranging compositions to form natural narratives. In this case, however, he did not do much of the brushwork himself. The painting is believed to be a product of his lucrative workshop where a group of highly skilled painters translated the master’s own oil studies into large finished canvases.

The Judgement of Solomon was made by Peter Paul Rubens. What is more, this piece of art is included in the art collection of Statens Museum for Kunst (National Gallery of Denmark), which is located in Copenhagen, Denmark.

Important note: We try what we can in order to describe our products as clearly as it is possible and to illustrate them visually in our shop. Although, the pigments of the printed materials, as well as the printing might diverge marginally from the representation on the screen. Depending on the screen settings and the condition of the surface, not all colors are printed 100% realistically. In view of the fact that all our fine art prints are processed and printed manually, there might also be minor differences in the exact position and the size of the motif.
