About the piece
This striking oil painting by Venetian artist Gerolamo Forabosco captures the biblical hero David in a moment of quiet triumph. Utilizing the dramatic chiaroscuro typical of the Baroque period, Forabosco emphasizes the textures of David's animal-skin garment and the somber weight of his victory against an impenetrable dark background.
