"David's Camp at Engedi" is a painting by William Brassey Hole (1846–1917), a Scottish artist known for his religious and historical works. The painting depicts a biblical scene from the First Book of Samuel, chapter 24, where David spares the life of King Saul. Engedi, an oasis in the Judean Desert near the Dead Sea, serves as the backdrop for this dramatic encounter. In the biblical narrative, David and his men are hiding in the caves of Engedi when Saul enters to relieve himself. David's men urge him to kill Saul, but instead, David cuts off a corner of Saul's robe as proof of his loyalty.

Hole's interpretation of this scene captures the tension and the moral dilemma faced by David. The artist's attention to detail and his ability to convey the emotional intensity of the moment are evident in the work. William Brassey Hole was known for his meticulous research and his commitment to accurately representing historical and biblical settings, which is reflected in the authentic portrayal of the characters and the landscape in "David's Camp at Engedi."

The painting is part of Hole's broader oeuvre, which includes a series of illustrations for a family Bible, showcasing his dedication to religious themes. His works are characterized by their narrative quality and their capacity to engage viewers with the spiritual and moral questions posed by the stories they depict.

"David's Camp at Engedi" is a significant example of Hole's artistic legacy and contributes to the visual interpretation of biblical stories in the context of 19th-century British art. It offers insight into the religious and cultural milieu of the time, as well as the enduring interest in biblical themes among artists and the public alike.
