DescriptionSolomon, dressed richly in robes and a feathered headdress, kneels before an idol on top of an altar. Next to him, a woman, also finely dressed, gestures towards the idol. Behind them, people are gathered in a crowded square, and the architecture of a great city can be seen just beyond the walls.This record has been reviewed by University Galleries staff but may be incomplete or contain errors.
