David Playing the Harp before Saul

Lucas van Leyden

Cleveland Museum of Art

A black-and-white drawing of a scene. A man in a tunic and boots holds a harp, standing on the left. He faces right. Four people are behind him. Three people sit at a table on the right. A man sits on a throne-like chair on the right; he has a long white beard and holds a scepter. The man with the harp faces the man with a beard. There are people carved into a wall on the right. A hanging light fixture and spears are visible in the background. All people wear medieval-style clothing.
