Okay, I got one more comment.

#48 and #62 both show Solomon’s throne with 6 steps and lions, which is correct.

I think #62 is a little closer. There are supposed to be two lions on each step.

Both are anachronistic. Solomon didn’t build the throne until after he built the Temple. It was with his palace. This judgment was after his offering and God’s appearance to him when he was 20. That was before he built the temple.

Of course, talented artists probably spent less time reading the Bible and more on their artwork.

Talented artists are, I expect, right-brained, whereas fact-adherence is more important to lefties.
