About this work
Solomon sits on his throne with the scepter in his hand. Before him are the two women both claiming the same child. The first woman kneels before Solomon, the second stands and points with her finger at the child. On the ground before the throne lies the dead child. A soldier with a sword holds the living child in his arms. Pendant of a print with Esther before King Ahasuerus.
