"The Visit of the Queen of Sheba to King Solomon" is an 1890 painting by the British artist Sir Edward John Poynter, who was a prominent figure in the Victorian era art world. This work is a historical painting that depicts the biblical story of the Queen of Sheba's journey to meet King Solomon, as recounted in the First Book of Kings and the Second Book of Chronicles in the Hebrew Bible. The narrative illustrates the queen's awe at Solomon's wisdom and the wealth of his kingdom, which has been a popular subject for artists throughout history.

Poynter's interpretation of this encounter is characterized by its grand scale and meticulous attention to detail, reflecting the academic style of painting that was prevalent during his time. The composition is rich with opulent colors and textures, capturing the splendor and ceremony of the queen's visit. Poynter's use of light and shadow, as well as his incorporation of architectural and natural elements, helps to create a sense of depth and realism in the scene.

As a leading painter of the late 19th century, Poynter was known for his historical and mythological scenes, often imbued with a classical sensibility. He served as the President of the Royal Academy from 1896 until his death in 1919, and his works were widely celebrated for their technical skill and academic rigor. "The Visit of the Queen of Sheba to King Solomon" is a testament to Poynter's mastery of historical subject matter and his ability to convey narrative through the visual arts. The painting remains an important example of Victorian historical painting and contributes to the understanding of cultural and artistic interpretations of biblical stories during this period.
