"David and Bathsheba" is a painting by Frans Wouters, a Flemish Baroque painter known for his history paintings and landscapes. Wouters, born in Lier, Belgium, in 1612, was a pupil of Peter Paul Rubens and later became a court painter in England and the Habsburg court. His work "David and Bathsheba" depicts the biblical story of King David, who sees Bathsheba bathing and, struck by her beauty, summons her to his palace, leading to an adulterous affair.

The painting is a classic example of Baroque art, with its dramatic use of light and shadow, rich colors, and dynamic composition. Wouters' skill in rendering the human form and his attention to detail are evident in the depiction of the figures and their surroundings. The narrative moment captured by Wouters is one of tension and impending tragedy, as the affair between David and Bathsheba results in a series of grave consequences, including the death of Bathsheba's husband, Uriah the Hittite, who is sent to the front lines of battle by David in an attempt to conceal the affair.

"David and Bathsheba" by Frans Wouters is not only a representation of a biblical scene but also an exploration of human emotion, power, and morality. The painting invites viewers to consider the complexities of the story and the consequences of the characters' actions. While the exact date of the painting's creation is not well-documented, it is a significant work within Wouters' oeuvre and contributes to the understanding of Baroque art and its thematic preoccupations.

The painting is part of the collection of a museum or private collector, and it has been studied by art historians interested in the Baroque period and the influence of Rubens on his pupils. "David and Bathsheba" continues to be an important work for scholars studying biblical representations in art and the cultural context of the 17th century in the Southern Netherlands.
